The goal is to up the intensity here as both these movements will get the heart rate revving. The idea behind this progression in the week is to have a more moderate day, then a slight uptick on Tuesday and then finish off the three day build with a good intense burst effort with this barbell burner.
Primary Objective: Complete the workout in sub 9
Secondary Objective: Keep reps tight and movement efficient. Set-up and keeping the chest tall during barbell cycling will be paramount for success in the workout.
Movement Modifications:

  • Bar Facing Burpees: First move to lateral burpees over the barbell, then traditional burpees, and finally adjusting to an elevated burpee or no push-up, no jump burpee (up down) would be a great alternative for the day.
  • Power Cleans: Adjust loads first, then secondarily move to a Hang Power Clean. Alternatively for those with front rack limitations lets move to a dumbbell power clean.
