Stimulus
– Overview: Athletes should aim to move through this workout at their maximum sustainable pace. The biggest notable here will be the heavier front squats. Let’s make the main focus getting these completed in as little sets as possible each round.
– Deadlifts: Loading should not exceed 65% of your 1RM clean (being able to clean/front squat will be the limiting factor). Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less each round.
– Pull-Ups: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less each round.
– Front Squats: Reps should be completed in 1:00 or less each round.
– Score: Total Time
Strategy
– It may seem silly, but we should think about breaking up the deadlifts early to save our energy for the pull-ups and front squats. A quick break can go a long way for our grip and our back. Let’s aim for 2-3 sets.
– Aim to complete the pull-ups in 1-3 sets.
– If we can squeeze out unbroken sets of front squats, that will be a bigger separator in this workout.
