Block Deadlifts: Develops the hinge pattern while shortening range of motion for those with tight hamstrings.

Primary Objective: Accumulate quality volume in both hinge strength and gymnastics under moderate fatigue.

Secondary Objective: Maintain strict pacing and strong bracing positions in both deadlifts and wall walk complexes.

Strategy:
This workout is designed to tax posterior chain strength and upper-body stamina simultaneously. The deadlifts are meant to be challenging but sustainable, so singles or small sets are recommended as the ladder climbs—avoid rushing and compromising mechanics. The wall walk complex is the limiter; maintain tight midline control and treat the handstand push-up as a composed, deliberate rep. The workout will escalate quickly, so athletes should focus on efficiency and minimizing no-reps. Success comes from balancing pacing on the barbell with precision on the gymnastics.

Movement Adjustments:

Wall Walk Complex: Modify to box wall walks, pike handstand push-ups, or wall walks only if athletes cannot perform the HSPU safely.

Deadlifts: Reduce load to 60–70% of 1RM, or substitute with kettlebell or dumbbell deadlifts for athletes with limited barbell access.
