Q: I don’t have a bike/ski-erg/sandbag/you-name-it. What do I do?

Option 1: If you only have 1 or 2 machines/implements but have a larger class, you can consider running heats or modifying the workout to a partner/team variation so everyone gets exposure to the implement. You can also use your warm-up or skill work as an opportunity for athletes to mess around with odd objects or machines without worrying about slowing a workout down. Option 2: If you don’t have the implement or machine at all, use what you do have to meet the desired stimulus of the workout or movement. A rower or slam ball is fairly similar to a Ski Erg, and a power clean is fairly similar to a sandbag clean. When in doubt, meet the intended stimulus and use comparable movement patterns and you will be just fine.

Question 4

How much time should my daily program take?

admin · Accepted Answer

We made the GPP Program with the 1-hour affiliate model in mind. The Competitor Program, if done correctly, will take at least 90 minutes, sometimes more. We encourage coaches to modify the daily program to accommodate intensity, not volume.

Question 5

Does the GPP program avoid high skill or odd movements?

admin · Accepted Answer

No. We will still occasionally include high skill gymnastics (muscle ups, handstand push-ups) and odd object/equipment (sandbag, SkiErg) in the programming.
