Stimulus
– Overview: In this Hero workout, athletes will be challenged to hold on for bigger sets of front squats and to plan their break up strategy for the power cleans and pull-ups based off of what will allow them to stick to their front squat strategy.
– Power Cleans: Loading should not exceed 60% of your 1RM clean. Singles and/or sets are encouraged in this workout.
– Pull-Ups: Athletes should be able to complete 8 or more pull-ups unbroken when fresh to complete reps as prescribed. Reps can be performed with or without a kip.
– Front Squats: Athletes should be able to complete every round in 1-2 sets.
– Score: Total Time
Strategy
– Singles or small sets on the cleans will help save the arms for the pull-ups as well as keep the heart rate under better control. If you are confident in your pull-up capacity, feel free to push for some bigger sets here.
– The pull-ups will depend on the athlete but for those who tend to struggle with gymnastics, let’s shoot for smaller quick sets. For those who excel at gymnastics, let’s see if we can go for some bigger sets.
– Regardless of your gymnastics, all athlete should strive to hang on for 1-2 sets on the front squats each round.
