ROUNDS OF "THE CHIEF"
3 Power Cleans – Reduce load, From the hang, Double Dumbbell
3 Push-ups – On a box, DB Bench
3 Air Squats – To a target
A good long workout – 30:00 of pure joy! 30min time cap!
8:00-10:00 a round = ~3+ Rounds
3 full rounds is the goal!
Remember: After the 50 DU/400m run /50 DU, we then do FIVE rounds of "The Chief" to complete one full round.
Grab a white board or pocker chips for this one. It will be easy to lose track 😉
Watch out for those push-ups – they will come around faster than you would like.
MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
50 Double-Unders will take less than 1:00 and will be just enough to make you not want to run fast, which is ok.
The Run should be a moderate effort. Save the "burn " on the run for towards the end of the workout. That been said, "moderate" doesn’t mean "take it easy" – you know what to do 😉
"The Chief" will be a grind for sure! Move fast on the movements that you can (i.e., Power Clean), and be smart with the movements that may slow you down (i.e., The Push-Ups).
Every athlete is different in terms of what will challenge them the most.

85-90% of 5RM

Pausing Walking Lunge – :1 pause with back knee on the ground or very very close to the ground.
Dumbbells held in the front rack position, with hands on handles. Build up if you can
B: Metcon (Time)
10 Rounds For Time
3 Ring Muscle-Ups
6 Front Squats (R+155/105, Rx125/85)
13/9 Cal Row or Ski or 9/6 Cal Bike
*25min time cap
MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
MUSCLE-UPS: 3 MU takes ~15 unbroken. The number of Muscle-Ups we choose for today must be unbroken for the majority, if not ALL rounds. We do not want to be staring at rings for :20.
If we are not doing Muscle-Ups, we can modify to a Burpee Pull-Up for 3 reps. This movement preserves the pull and the push. Also good option to modify are decreasing reps (1 MU) or 3 Muscle-Up Kneeling Transitions
FRONT SQUATS: 6 Front Squats should take less than :30 and unbroken. Breaking the 6 up will mean the load is too heavy for today.
The Front Squat will be taken from the ground.
CALS: it should be quick, but it will be uncomfortable.
Again, this amount of calories should take ~ :30 seconds. If we are spending a minute here, the calories are too high.

250m Run
:30 L-Sit (Accumulate) pull up bar
Score = The number of rounds and reps completed in the 16:00 window
Log meters as reps
Log seconds as reps
Example: If you get through 3 rounds and end on :5 of the L-Sit, the score would read 3 Rounds + 5
Each movement should be completed with ~1:00.
The goal is to achieve 4+ rounds
MOVEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
Double DB Box Step Over
Hold DB’s by the side.
Substitute for KB’s if want an extra challenge, they hang a little lower and will be a little more awkward.
DB FARMERS CARRY (100m)
Ideally walk out for 50m and back for 50m. If space is lacking try 25m x4
HANGING L-SITS
for an extra challenge use parallettes or rings.

Focus: Staying tall, open the chest, stay on ball of foot

10 Chest to Bar Pull-ups
14/10 row or ski or 10/7 Cal Bike
*6 Scores. Record all 6 split times.
We are looking to finish each round around 1:30. This will leave 1:30 to recover.
A 1:1 work rest ratio tells us that we can push hard for each round, but will not be fully recovered.
The goal is to "Go!" Don’t hold back. *We score this by logging time for each round.*
As the rounds progress, it will be harder to keep the 1:30/round and the rest will decrease.
Be aware of the movement order changing at round 4. Rounds 4-6 will start with the Thruster.
