STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! high-skilled grip wrecker. Remember, test the first set out with a slightly slower than anticipated pace to see where your upper body endurance is at.
How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! The pull and push combo with high intensity will attack your upper body relentlessly.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Rope Climbs: Jump high and keep your pulls around 2-3 to the top (15ft). Make sure to chalk up prior and keep the rest short and sweet between reps.
Strict Handstand Push Ups: Low reps, but muscle fatigue will build across sets. The goal should be unbroken but break if needed to maintain efficiency and avoid failure.
Dumbbell Power Cleans: Weight selected should allow for unbroken reps, but maybe break the around 8-9 reps to allow your arms a breather before returning to the rope climbs.
