Intent

“Restrepo”
*New Hero*
Today’s Hero workout is a high-skill stamina test that challenges upper body integrity, trunk endurance, grip stamina, and composure under fatigue. The strict gymnastics force athletes to stay disciplined while the run and carry portions elevate the heart rate and challenge recovery.

The strict pull-ups and strict handstand push-ups are the true governors today. Athletes should scale early and appropriately so they can maintain movement quality across all 5 rounds. Toes-to-bar should be controlled and efficient, not frantic.

The dumbbell carry is an opportunity to challenge posture and mental toughness. Encourage athletes to stay moving even if pace slows. This workout rewards athletes who avoid muscular failure and maintain composure throughout.

Because of the total volume and complexity, athletes should be fully prepared and starting the workout by 18:00–20:00 into class.
