Goal: 7+ Rounds

Stimulus: Grinder Pacing Focused Workout / Barbell Cycling and High Gymnastics
RPE: 8/10

Primary Objective: Maintain a pace as close to 2:00-2:30 a round as possible
Secondary Objective: Keep the Bar Muscle-Ups to 2 sets or less.

Workout Strategy:
Pacing is key in this 20:00 AMRAP. Start each round smooth and relaxed on the double unders—unbroken is ideal, but quick breaks won’t hurt if it keeps your heart rate down. Move into the power snatches with quick singles as the suggested style to tackle this one today. If athletes choose to touch and go, we should suggest only small quick sets of 3 to keep grip fatigue to a low. The barbell weight is moderate, so efficiency matters more than speed. For the bar muscle-ups, break them early if needed to avoid failure, fast singles or small sets can keep you moving. Set a goal to maintain steady round times and avoid big drop-offs late in the workout. Think of this as a rhythm workout, find yours early and stay in it.

Movement Modifications:
Double Unders: Adjust to 25 Double Unders or 60 Single Unders
Power Snatch: Adjust load first and then secondary adjust to a Hang Power Snatch
Bar Muscle-Ups: Lets adjust to Burpee Pull-Ups as the primary modification today, but we could also move to Banded Bar Muscle-Ups, or stay with a strict modification as 5 Strict Pull-Ups + 5 Strict Dips.
