“Legacy” 2026 Partner Style❤️
Benchmark WODs are so fun because we can redo the exact same workout and see if we’ve improved in some capacity. Last week HWPO’s WOD Legacy fell on a deload week. So what did we do?
We modified Legacy by cutting the volume in half and sharing the work with a partner. We kept the intensity high while reducing the overall workload, allowing us to move with purpose, recover properly, and stay on track with our deload week. Plus partner workouts just hit a little different👩🏼🐰👩🏽
The goal of a deload isn’t to do less for the sake of it, it’s to recover so you can come back stronger. We can’t redline 52 weeks a year. Sometimes the smartest training is simply doing a little less.
