Secondary Objective: Go Big on the Pull-Ups
This simple couplet is in the vein of a workout we might see in the final week of the Open. While this will start off approachable, the volume accumulates quickly and the heart rate will spike sooner than we think. Top end athletes will be looking to go largely unbroken, trust their fitness, and ‘figure it out’ in the final 2 rounds. Most would benefit from playing to their strengths here, going big on either the wallballs or the pull-ups, and focusing on an intelligent approach to the other movement.
If you can perform the level 3/2 version of this workout, even if it means getting time capped/finishing outside the goal time, I absolutely encourage it today.
