Today we have a bit of a unique stimulus where we are forced to work through local muscle endurance and mental limitations for 4:00 straight at each movement. The first movement for everyone today would optimally be handstand walking as it is the highest skill. It will benefit those athletes who can get upside down but may still be mastering to actually walk forward to spend the 4:00 TRYING TO! It is a great set up for people to have breakthroughs today, and if you still struggle to get upside down then consider drills off of the box or the wall for development and challenge. Push the bike and the row paces, use the warm up as a chance to consider what you may be able to hold in regards to a pace and what that would leave you expecting calorically.
