Perseus’ Plank Powerset

Date: 2026-02-12 AO: the-knoll Q: Shakira PAX: Wolfpack, AAA, Roadkill, Link (2.0), Churchill (2.0) FNGs: None COUNT: 6 CONDITIONS: A brisk 30 degree gloom welcomed the few PAX who survived the first day of Shakira’s Racewalk school. Those who survived all the way to the end were rewarded with the first signs of Spring on the horizon: an early sunset!
WARMUP: 30 side straddle hops, 15 Baby arm circles, 15 Back backs, 10 low slow merkins, Mosey + heel/toe walk
THE THANG: We began with a 1 minute plank and an explanation of Perseus’ training advice: “If you want to be an Olympian, you need to be able to plank for 7 minutes.” By the end of the workout, we had 4 Olympic ready PAX and 2 Inchworm-Olympics level 2.0s.
Perseus’ Plank Powerset Pt. 1 3 x 4 stations (w/15 sec rest) – 1:00 Plank – 25 squats, then hold low squat – 1:00 dips (hold plank if tired) – 1:00 crunches (hollow hold if tired)
