Complete 25/20 Cal Row or Ski or 17/14 cal Bike + 100 Double Unders or singles
Dumbbell: (Rx70/50, S 60/40)
We will start on the row for 30/24 Calories, then proceed to 100 double unders, before getting into the ladder of alternating dumbbell snatch and strict pull-ups. Every 5 minutes thereafter we will stop moving up the ladder and proceed back to the rower and the double unders. All reps are to be split between partners in the most efficient way possible to keep moving and get as far up the ladder as possible in the 20 minute timeframe.
Goal: Finish the round of 24+ on the ladder
Stimulus: Midline and pulling stamina under aerobic interference
RPE: 8.5/10
Primary Objective: Split the reps evenly and maintain a strong consistent pace with quality form on the Dumbbell Snatch
