TARGET SCORE
Target Time each set: sub 2 minutes
Time Cap each set: 3 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Come out swinging, not a lot can go wrong with the quick descending rep scheme. Just be smart and use the time between the movements as rest. Take the first set a little lighter then planned to test the waters and then ramp up the pacing going into the second.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! The pull/push combination will do a number on your upper body. Stay tight, don’t get sloppy.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Deadlifts: Moderate weight (-70%) where there should be no hesitation to stay unbroken.

Wall Facing Strict Handstand Push Ups: These will probably be the most difficult so practice finding that sweet spot before the start of the workout. If you can go unbroken and if not then 2 sets is the minimum.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

TARGET SCORE
Target Time each set: sub 2 minutes 15 seconds
Time Cap each set: 3 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Stimulus is moderate-high pacing into short/high-skilled gymnastics while under heavy duress. Start off a little light on the pace and then slowly increase as you groove in. Get your heart rate back down during the break, and don’t sell out until the final set.

How it should Feel: GASSY! Running into a bike and then going inverted will have you all out of whack. Stay calm and control your breathing, or you won’t survive.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Shuttle Run: Push pace effort here while aiming to slow down the final run to prep for the bike.

Erg / Bike: Get the wheels turning and ramp it up for the first few calories before settling into a moderate push pace effort (80%). Aim to finish under the 50-second mark.

Handstand Walk: Unbroken! Take a deep breath, and then go for it.

(Keep Hands Safe)

TARGET SCORE
Target Rounds: 6+
Minimum Rounds before scaling: 4

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! Find a consistent pace that can be maintained across all rounds and then push the pace in the final 90 seconds with whatever is left in the tank. Keep track of the first-round time and then try to replicate that as closely as possible to assist in pacing.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and/or CARDIO! It’s all movements that we are familiar with so hang on and try to give a good honest Open-like effort. It’s going to be a fight in the final 8 minutes.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Alternating Dumbbell Hang Clean and Jerk: Unbroken! The good news about movements like this is the non-working arm gets somewhat of a break between reps. Weight should be moderate so explode with your hips and grind through the 18 reps. We recommend catching the dumbbell at eye level on the way down to transition each rep.

Dumbbell Facing Burpees: Steady on the pace while keeping your heart rate under control. Effort should be consistent and moderate, with the aim to just stay moving. So pick a pace you can hang onto with these from the beginning with that in mind.

Toes to Bar:/ (Keep Hands Safe)
Be strategic on these as well from the beginning. If you can’t hit 18+ unbroken then you can start with 2-3 sets and probably stay there. If you can’t hit over 12 unbroken then start with smaller sets (3-5) and try to stay moving as much as often as you can. Break sooner than later to save the grip going back into the hang dumbbell clean and jerks.

TARGET SCORE
SCORE = ONLY reps of movement after machine
Target Reps each set: 15+ (10+ for bar muscle ups)
Minimum Reps before scaling each set: 10 (5 for bar muscle ups)

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! 4 quick AMRAPs that start with a moderate push pace effort on a different erg every time into some high-skilled, max reps gymnastics in the remaining time. Work hard on the machines to leave yourself nearly 60 seconds to attack the bodyweight movements. We are going through this twice, so try to match or increase scores.

How it should Feel: GASSY into MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! It’s pretty simple: put forth a solid and sustainable effort on the machines that allows you to stay aggressive on the max reps.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Ski / Bike / Row: Pacing should be moderately high (80%+) where you know it won’t put you in a serve cardio deficit. Breathe through the motion and slow down the final 30-50m/2-3 calories before transitioning off.

Bar Muscle Up: You should have at least 60 seconds here, so let’s not shoot for broke. Instead, think of a respectable set that won’t break the bank. Then, it’s time for small sets until the time is done.

Burpee Box Jump Over: Just stay moving with a pace that allows non-stop movement throughout the remaining time. It might hurt slightly, but just know that the rest is coming.

Lunges: Whatever you are comfortable with here is fine. Just find your balance and try to keep your rhythm.

Kipping Handstand Push Ups: Like the muscle ups, maybe a big set first (not to failure) and then into smaller, quicker sets.

TARGET SCORE
Target Reps each set: 5/4+
Minimum reps before scaling each set: 3/2

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE!
We keep the body moving and stay aggressive from station to station. Moderate push pace effort is ideal off the start to see how much time is left for muscle ups. A great goal would be to reach the rings with 30+ seconds left.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE!
These are three nicely paired movements designed so you can stay moving and have enough upper-body left to get swinging on the rings.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Single Dumbbell Walking Lunge: Place the dumbbell wherever you like and simply lunge! On the shoulder or a Farmer’s hold is likely the easiest. Just move steadily here while staying unbroken across sets.
—if you don’t have room for the 50ft then complete a total of 16 In place lunges for each 50ft.

Bike: Don’t feel like you have to send this at all. Pick a moderate/fast pace effort at 80-85% to finish with some left in the tank. The goal should be sub 50 seconds and aim to slow down the final 2-3 calories.

Ring Muscle Ups: You won’t have much time, so maybe try a solid number that’s not to failure. 5/4+ would be great and don’t risk it all unless it’s the final set.

TARGET SCORE
Target Rounds: 4+
Minimum Rounds before Scaling: 3

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY and GRIND! The goals are a solid grunt work workout with a moderate pace and consistent rep scheme. Try to keep round times similar without over-pacing the start. Use the time between stations for a quick break.

How it should Feel: CARDIO and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! Breathing must be strongly emphasized as each station will attack your lungs. The legs and kettlebell work will work the legs substantially as well but not enough to crush you in the workout itself.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
American Kettlebell Swings: The weight selected should allow you to stay unbroken across rounds. Be overly aggressive with your hips while breathing, with a slight pause at the top of each rep.

Sled Push: Weight is moderate and should be moveable for unbroken lengths for most to all of the workout. Don’t go hard here; stay steady and keep your feet moving.

Kettlebell Goblet Squats: Same weight as the swings, same goal, unbroken! Smooth and steady while trying to avoid blowing up your legs.

Single Arm Kettlebell Push Press: Must complete all five on one arm before switching. Unbroken sets across and like the swings, be explosive with your hip drive every rep.

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

50 Double Unders
Rest 3min between sets

TARGET SCORE
Target Time each set: sub 2 minutes
Time Cap each set: 3 minutes

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Effort should be moderately high across all sets. Be aggressive on transitions, don’t get caught stopping and staring, and use the first set as a tester. Then, turn it on through the final set.

How it should Feel: GASSY! Everything is designed to attack your lungs and legs, making proceeding to the next station much more difficult. Suck it up and move!

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Run/ Erg/AB: Fast pace (85%+), not an all-out sprint (save it for the last), but a respectable effort that allows you to finish ideally in 30-40 seconds.

Wall Balls: Unbroken! That’s it, and there’s no other option. Take a deep breath and get right to work.

Double Unders: Unbroken is the ultimate goal. If you trip up, return to work; don’t use it as an excuse to rest. Make sure your rope is set up appropriately before starting.

How it should Feel: GASSY! This one will get you out of breath about ½ in and then it’ll be over before you know it.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Shuttle Run: You should be finding a great rhythm, transition and speed for yourself on these by this point in the season! (especially with all of our practice of them)
Work to make each round a consistent time for these
If you don’t have room to do a shuttle sprint you can perform an 8/7 calorie sprint on a machine. This should take 30 seconds or less

Burpee Box Jump Over: Nonstop here. This is a great workout to practice what “game pace” would be for these.
