The Performance Series 01: Precision Recap

Performance Series: Precision

Last Wednesday night marked the official launch of The OA Performance Series. A new series of community events led by Over+Above. The Performance Series focuses on bringing our community together through movement, performance and the science that inspires our products. This series will cover a range of disciplines but always follow the same ideal of creating a space for the community to come improve, learn and connect with others.

The series kicked off with an Over+Above x COO:PAH collaborative track session at Battersea track. A massive thank you to those who braved the cold on the evening and powered through a session which consisted of a mixture of speed, grit and lots of whistle blowing by James Thie.

Training Session Recap

The session was lead by James Thie former GB Athlete, two time commonwealth games competitor and current head coach for GB running and COO:PAH. James’ expertise on the evening brought an incredible level of insight, energy, and humour.

We opened the evening with three steady laps around the track in hope to warm-up. From there, the hoodies and tracksuit bottoms started peel off and James led us through a structured dynamic warm up focusing on getting everything firing prior to the main Body of work which consisted of:

• 2-minute running blocks with rotating recovery intervals.

• Recovery progressed through 30 seconds → 60 seconds → 90 seconds → worked back back down to 30 seconds.

We completed 4 sets, totalling 12 reps.

It was a challenging but rewarding session that perfectly showcased what The OA Performance Series is all about: community, progression and performance backed by innovation.

Thank you again for the enthusiasm and support. We can’t wait to continue building this team as the series grows.Our next session will be at District Battersea Crossfit on December 10th, and will focus on a Hyrox . See you there!
