Toomey was among the many athletes who did the 21.2 workout, back when it was the 17.1. So she had a bit of an idea of what it takes to be successful in this workout, which pits athletes against a stream of dumbbell snatches and burpee box jump overs.

Tia-Clair Toomey Gives Tips For Success

As someone with a ton of experience, and knowledge of this particular workout, Tia-Clair Toomey decided to offer some advice to those looking to complete the 21.2. She did the same with the 21.1 workout last week, and decided it best to do it again.

Posting to her YouTube channel, the multiple time Fittest Woman on Earth®, alongside her husband Shane Orr, documented their reaction to this workout announcement. Watching from home, with some other guests, the pair were excited when the workout was announced.

While she does not recall her time, Toomey did admit that she remembered doing this workout back in 2017, when it first came around. So both she and Shane knew firsthand that there is really just one key to being successful with this workout: managing your energy.

“It’s a very similar pacing strategy to 21.1, where you don’t want to come out of the gate too hot, because you’ll just find yourself at a deficit early on,” Orr said.

“So smooth through the box jump portions, just holding onto that cadence. You will have to remind yourself to stay engaged for that. For the dumbbell cycling it’s just consistent and making sure you use your legs.”
