Free Fall Program Week 5 | Crank or Crash, and Knowing When to Fold

This week included an aerobic (capacity / endurance) test and some novel approaches to mobility. That is, using load, breathing, and time under tension to broaden ranges of movement.

Summary:

Some days you don’t have it in you. Some days you want to. Some days your body has other plans. Intelligent and autonomous training requires you to know the difference.

The week started with an endurance test, followed by a rare rest day. Grappling this week continued to focus on leg locks, except now we moved to an escape / flow sequence.

Later in the week I was under a lot of mental strain, and not feeling the best physically, so I took some creative liberties in shaking up the session order and how I chose to address mobility as a facet of strength.
