- Pull ups should not exceed 5 minutes to complete.
- The goal of this workout is for everyone to get the chance at Bar Muscle Ups with only the very best potentially finishing under the cap.
The first gymnastics pulling movement should be the “easier” of the two that the athlete performs. We have an Rx/Scaled/Beginner option because of the variance in gymnastics abilities, but there’s a good chance athletes will get stuck on the pull up bar which is acceptable because it’s a gymnastics test. Consider staggering start times by roughly 4 minutes, allowing time for athletes to row and spread out on the pull up bars/bar muscle up stations.
Workout is “for time” just so there’s no chance anyone gets back on the rower, but the majority of athletes should get time capped. The vast majority of athletes should get to the Bar Muscle Ups and have some time to work or attempt their first reps.
