m/y = Meters or Yards

10" = 10 second rest

90” = 90 second rest

C2 = Concept 2 Rower

TT = Time Trial= A measurement of maximum work capacity/power output over a set amount of time or distance. The time trial is often called the race of truth. It is done alone and should be re-tested under similar conditions and the same distance/time.

Tempo= Reduced but consistent pace for time or distance. 100% is all out effort, 90% is a 10% pulled back effort. Range between 85% to 95%.

RPE = Rate of perceived exertion , See RPE scale below.

Tabata = 8 rounds of 20 seconds on 10 seconds rest, maximal effort.

On the Minute = Start each set at the beginning of a new minute.

On :45 seconds = You have 45 seconds to perform the distance & rest. You start each set on :45 second interval.

Deviation Window: Sports will list a deviation window with the phrase, "Hold within," (for example, 2-3 seconds or 3-5 seconds). All efforts for that particular sport should be kept within this range to work on pacing.

Hold within 2-3 seconds: The difference between your fastest repeat and slowest repeat should be 3 seconds at most. You are looking to repeat the same times with a small, if any, deviation in times. This teaches pacing.

Fouls = To be done at end of workout. If you foul more then once, you get 2 min. recoveries before you need to start new foul(s).

AMRAP= As Many Rounds As Possible

Rx = as prescribed

DE= Dynamic Effort = Typically taking 50-70% of 1RM for that exercise and moving through exercise with maximal speed (controlled!). Usually 2-3 reps on 90sec - 30sec interval
