Heavy pull on the pull ups. The goal is to gain strength by using all of these sets as working sets! Then we run fast and flex through the trunk. The goal is to push the run so you can get several rounds in but equally, you want to go for broke on the toes to bar. This is a workout that is similar to a benchmark “Nicole” with running and pull ups. So yes, we want more rounds, but equally we want big sets. Let go of the idea of competing beside the person next to you, and really focus on the “stimulus” of this training combo. The goal is to scale the skill to something where you know you can a minimum of 10-15 reps each round. This means some may need to hybrid approach this with 5-6 RX’d toes to bar then keep hanging on for knee’s to chest!
