STIMULUS and GOALS
Another monday, another murph prep day. This workout is a play on the workout “Angie” but, with a twist. We are completing it as an AMRAP and instead of regular pull ups we change it to strict.
This is all about managing the strict pull ups and not burning out. Be smart about sets and try and keep moving.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Strict Pull Ups: Ideally we would want anything but singles. However, given the sheer volume if that’s what it takes to keep moving then you gotta do what you gotta do. Use the clock and see if you can keep 12+ on the minute to finish under the pull up time cap.
Push Ups: Like the pull ups sets should be small, quick with little rest. Avoid burning out by pushing through the struggle stage and rest before it’s too late. Also, always rest off the hands and shoulders. Use the clock and see if you can keep close to 20 a minute.
Sit Ups: We reached the point where all we want is non-stop movement. Use the hands and be aggressive with the throw while trying to keep a steady pace pushing through.
Air Squats: Like the sit ups the goal should be non-stop. The legs will get tight so keep a pace that does not put you at the risk of blowing up. Breathe through each rep and keep the chest high. Goal should be around 30+ a minute.
