Strength EMOM (2 Rounds for weight)

12:00 EMOM

minute 1: 3-3-2-2-1-1 Weighted Strict Pull-Ups

minute 2: Unbroken Strict Press @ 55% of 1RM

*1 sec Pause Overhead on each Strict Press Rep

Weighted Pull-Ups: Start with heavy sets of 3 and add loads as the reps descend to sets of 1.

Strict Press: The weight will be taken from the floor and we are looking to tackle 50% for an unbroken set of reps in the range of 10-15 reps on each set, with the focus on volume accumulation and a challenging unbroken set that varies lightly set to set.
Goal: Consistent unbroken sets on the press each minute / Near maximal loading on the 2s and 1s for pull-ups

RPE: 7.5-8/10

Stimulus: Vertical Push / Pull Strength Endurance

Primary Objective: Protect the unbroken standard on the strict press across all 6 sets. The pause overhead is intentional and should not be rushed. Quality and volume accumulation are the priority here, not load.

Secondary Objective: Build pull-up loading with intention. Athletes should arrive at the 2s and 1s at a weight that is genuinely challenging, not simply heavy for appearance. The descending rep scheme exists to allow loading to climb safely.
