Goal: 6-8 Rounds

Primary Objective: Progress as far as possible in the ascending gymnastics complex while maintaining consistent pacing throughout the 16:00 window.

Secondary Objective: Manage grip and core fatigue efficiently to sustain movement quality under increasing volume.

Stimulus: Grip and core endurance test with gymnastics and weighted carries.

Upper body pressing fatigue will accumulate from strict pull-ups and dumbbell bench press.

Sustained, moderate-intensity workout requiring smart pacing to avoid early burnout.

RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion): 7-9/10

First 6-8 minutes: Feels controlled, but grip starts to fatigue.

Second half: Managing upper body fatigue becomes the primary challenge.
