Field Test:
Interval Short
Joe Rodonis
The challenge
The Interval Short is built for versatility. Constructed with four-way stretch to ensure maximum range of motion and a cling-free, ultra-wicking shell for mobility, the Interval Short was constructed to handle everything from HIIT to CrossFit to bootcamps. As a Head Coach at Tone House, Joe’s workouts are focused on improving sports performance. Whether it’s conditioning work with sprints, lateral movements, explosive jumps, gallops, sleds or strength training, he’s working nonstop. That’s why Joe understands the importance of having a go-to short that switches gears at a moment’s notice. To test just how much they can handle, we set Joe up with a pair of our Interval Shorts for an explosive workout.
WARM UP:
- Sled Push (~120 - 160 lbs) - 4 rounds down and back
OR 1,200 meter row at 2:00 - 2:15 minute pace
CONDITIONING:
- Two 20-yard sprints down and back
- 2 Sprints / 2 Gallops (20 yards down and back) for 2 rounds each
- Battle Ropes

- Last Round - 10 normal squats Into 10 jump squats

- Landmine Barbell Single Arm Overhead Press
- 20 reps on left single arm, 20 reps right single arm, 2 rounds.
The Verdict
IT'S JUST TOO WELL MADE
“The Interval Short is an incredibly versatile short. I train in all planes of motion and perform explosive movements, and these shorts never restrict me. They always feel ready to go for even more, even after a heavy training session.”
