Pull-Up Bar: Out of reach of hands at full extension of the arms
Score = Total Running Time

Goal: Sub 2:00 per set / Ideally 1:30-2:00

RPE: 9/10 , This should feel like a full sprint every set

Stimulus: Short Sprint / Aerobic Power / Upper Body Pulling

Primary Objective: Sprint. This is not a workout for pacing, plan attack every set like it's a single max effort and use the 2:00 rest to fully reset.

Secondary Objective: Stay clean on the Burpee Pull-Up, jump to the bar with control and pull aggressively. This is where the workout will slow down significantly specifically after the bike if you aren't intentional about your movement.

Score = Rounds + Reps

Goal: ~ 2 Rounds

RPE: 8/10, This is sustained effort, not a sprint

Stimulus: Partner Aerobic Conditioning / Muscular Endurance / Midline Stability

Primary Objective: Split the row efficiently and transition to the floor work without burning out your partner. Communicate the split before the clock starts with an even 250m split or 500m split to allow for enough time to hold pace while not burning out your partner on the bag.

Secondary Objective: Keep the sandbag hold honest during the row. The partner holding the bag needs to be holding the bag in order for each partner to be rowing. They shouldn't be putting the bag down.

For Reps

4 Sets:

2:00 AMRAP

3 Wall Walks

10 Burpee Box Jump Overs

- Max Rope Climbs

Rest 2:00 b/t sets

Wall Walks to 10in From Wall
Score = Sum Total Reps (All Combined Reps)

Goal: 3–5 rope climbs per set / 12–18 total

RPE: 9/10 — this is meant to be a sprint every set

Stimulus: Gymnastics Skill / Upper Body Pulling Power / Sprint Intervals

Primary Objective: Move through the Wall Walks and Burpee Box Jump Overs fast enough to get meaningful time on the rope. Efficiency in the first two movements is everything — slow transitions = fewer climbs.

Secondary Objective: Approach the rope with urgency, not desperation. A fatigued, sloppy rope climb is slower and more dangerous than a quick reset breath and a sharp climb. Get to the rope, breathe for one second, then go.
