Athlete Notes

  • Kipping HSPU: Focus on a smooth kip and consistent pacing. Break into smaller sets if necessary to avoid early fatigue.
  • Wall Balls: Aim for unbroken sets or split into two quick sets. Keep a steady rhythm and maintain a strong squatting posture.
  • Muscle Ups: Manage these in smaller sets or singles, depending on your proficiency. Prioritize quality and controlled movement.
  • Front Squats: Use a weight that’s challenging but allows for good form. Consider breaking it into sets of 5 or doing them unbroken if you’re able.

 

Purpose: This workout is designed to test and improve your gymnastic skills, explosive strength, and metabolic conditioning. It challenges your endurance, strength, and technique across various functional movements.

 

Scaling Options:

  • HSPU: Scale to piked push-ups or regular push-ups.
  • Wall Balls: Reduce the weight of the ball or the number of reps.
  • Muscle Ups: Substitute with chest-to-bar pull-ups, kipping pull-ups, or banded pull-ups. Choose an option that challenges you while allowing you to maintain a good pace and form.
  • Front Squats: Reduce the weight to maintain proper form throughout.
