“Evergreen” (AMRAP – Reps)
AMRAP 12:
15 Wallballs 20 / 14 lb to 10/9ft.
1-2-3…Burpee Pull-ups
Stimulus
– Overview: Athletes should pace themselves right from the start in this 12 minute workout. Shoulder and leg fatigue will be the two biggest factors here.
– Wallballs: Reps should take 1:00 or less to complete each round.
– Burpee Pull-Ups: The pull-up bar should be just outside your reach. Athletes can jump right into their pull-up or kip first. Reps will increase by 1 each round.
Modifications
WALLBALLS
– Reduce Reps/Loading/Target
– Single Dumbbell Thrusters
– Empty Barbell Thrusters
– 20 Air Squats
BURPEE PULL-UPS
– Burpees To Target
– Pull-Ups
– Burpees + Banded Pull-Ups
– Burpees + Ring Rows
– Burpees
– Score: Rounds + Reps
Strategy
– Let’s aim for 1-2 sets on the wallballs each round. The ball can only move so fast so this movement is a great place to catch the breath.
– Settle into a steady pace on the burpee pull-ups as you get deeper into the workout. Jumping directly into the pull-up is going to be a faster cycle time than performing a kip first but choose the variation that allows you to stay moving.
