Progress athletes through the HSPU ladder based on their level. Coaches should confirm the scaling tier and depth standard before the clock starts on "Iron Mile."
Bench Press (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)
Goal: Controlled, quality reps across all three sets with load climbing each set. Set 3 at 80% should feel strong and confident, not a grind. With the 3:00 working window athletes should be set, focused, and ready before each set begins.
Level 1: 9-7-5 keeping all sets @ 6-7 RPE with quality rep focus and some in the tank.
Travel/Hotel: Dual Dumbbell Bench Press or Dual Dumbbell Floor Press for 15-12-9 reps at a challenging and consistent loading across all three sets.
Modifications and Adjustments
- Adjust grip width for athletes dealing with shoulder or wrist discomfort. A slightly narrower grip can reduce stress on the anterior shoulder without compromising the pressing pattern.
- Move to a Floor Press to limit range of motion for athletes dealing with shoulder impingement or discomfort at the bottom of the press.
- Adjust to Single Arm Dumbbell Press for athletes managing a unilateral shoulder limitation, allowing each side to be trained independently.
"Iron Mile" (Time)
For Time:
4 Sets:
16/12 Calorie Echo Bike
10 Strict Handstand Push-Ups
50ft (15m) Goblet Walking Lunge
Rest 1:00 b/t sets
Kettlebell: 53/35lb, 24/16kg
Goal: Each set completed in 2:30–3:15 | Total time under 16:00 with rest
Time Cap: 17:00
RPE: 8–8.5/10
Stimulus: Gymnastics Strength / Aerobic Capacity
Primary Objective: Protect the strict pressing strength across all 4 sets. Handstand push-ups should be unbroken or quick sets of 5+5, or 4+3+3... if athletes are failing reps by set 3, the stimulus is lost.
Secondary Objective: Keep the goblet lunge load honest. This is not a recovery movement and should be a challenging, unbroken 50ft (15m) leaving athletes breathing before the rest window begins.
