STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: PAIN CAVE!!! If this doesn’t put you on your back, then you didn’t do it right!
How it should Feel: PAIN!!! The bike and Front Squats may hurt more than any other movements. Use the first Front Squats to stay steady, hold an aggressive bike pace, then SELL OUT on the last 15 Front Squats!!!
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Front Squats: Use a weight you can do ideally in no 1-2 sets to start, or 3 quicker sets at most on the. back end. You’ve got to breathe well through set 1 or you’ll blow up. Realize there’s plenty of time to make up on the bike, and the real winners of this workout don’t fall apart on your back half.
Echo Bike: The Bike should feel better this year since we just had a great progression on it! We want you to hold 85-90% effort throughout. You can use the last 2-3 calories to wind down as needed so you can get straight to the bike. Your specific pacing totally depends on your ability level here. Scale down calories if it takes more than 3 minutes on the bike
SCALING
The SCALING aim is to keep intensity up and get close to the target time.
Scaling option to finish near the target score:
15 Front Squats (155/105)

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: We want to do these two complexes with as few breaks as possible
How it should Feel: The Kipping will get your lungs going and the strict work will fire up those muscles.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
MuscleUps into Dips: Ideally we want to make this a complex so you go right into the Strict Ring Dips after your last Kipping Muscle Up
Handstand Pushups: Same strategy as the Ring Muscle Ups/Dips. If you need to break up, rest after the Hold work.
