Stimulus: Aerobic Stamina and Muscular Endurance

RPE: 7-7.5/10

Strategy:

For the first segment , keep the Dumbbell Bench Press unbroken or split into two quick sets if needed to avoid burnout in later rounds. Move at a steady, controlled pace on the Air Squats to prepare for the run, which should be moderate but consistent across all rounds. Avoid sprinting the 200m run in earlier rounds to preserve energy.

In the second segment , pace the run similarly to the first piece. For Wall Walks, focus on efficient transitions and maintaining proper shoulder positioning and straight arms to avoid excessive fatigue. Look to go unbroken on Double-Unders or break into manageable sets with minimal rest between attempts, prioritizing rhythm and breathing.

Goal: 3:00-3:30/set

Score = Sum Total Interval Time

Stimulus: Midline Stamina and Endurance

RPE : 8/10

Primary Objective: Aggressive Machine Paces

Secondary Objective: Unbroken Overhead Squats, Toe to Bar in 2 sets or less.

This workout combines gymnastics, cals and weightlifting in a challenging interval format. Athletes will complete each set for time, resting for the remainder of the 4-minute window before starting the next round. The goal is to maintain consistent pacing across all four sets while minimizing transitions and fatigue buildup.

Strategy:

Work to keep the Toes to Bar in 2 sets or less before moving to an aggressive pace on the Row, Ski or Bike before circling back around to an unbroken set of 12 Overhead Squats and then finishing off with another aggressive hit cals.

Avoid over-pacing the first round, while at the same time remaining consistent and even increasing pace on the final round.
