Score: Rounds + Reps
Goal: 4–6 Rounds

Stimulus: High-Skill Interference / Light Barbell Cycling
RPE: 8.5/10

Primary Objective: Maintain quality toe to bar sets and work into fast transitions.
Secondary Objective: Cycle OHS efficiently with controlled breathing and positioning

Workout Strategy:
“You’re Gonna Need a Bigger Boat” blends midline stamina, shoulder endurance, and coordination in a tight 10 minute AMRAP. Athletes should aim for consistent, unbroken or short-set pacing on each movement, with sharp transitions and composure under fatigue.

Toes to bar will fatigue quickly if overdone early. Break into 9-6, 8-7 or 5-5-5 in order to maintain pacing and rhythm throughout.

Double unders should ideally be unbroken, but breaking once (30-20 or 25-25) is fine if it keeps tension down. Focus on breathing here—this is your recovery if used well.

The overhead squats are light, but demand stability and control. Unbroken sets are encouraged for those with solid positioning. This can be done as a squat snatch as the first overhead squat or a power snatch into the Overhead Squats to complete the reps.

Movement Modifications:

• Toes to Bar: Toes-to-target, alt toes to bar, knee raises, V-ups, or strict hanging leg raises as needed.
• Double Unders: 25-40 reps or scale to 75 single unders.
• Overhead Squats: Scale load or modify to front squats or goblet squats if overhead position is limited.

Stimulus and Objectives

Score: Sum Total Load
Goal: Building to 85-88%

Stimulus: Strength + Stamina Blend / Posterior Chain + Push Volume
RPE: 8/10

Primary Objective: Maintain good positions and bar speed at 80-90% of 1RM
Secondary Objective: Sustain quality movement across high-rep KB + push-up pairing

Workout Strategy:
“Say Hello to My Little Friend” is a hybrid EMOM, pairing strength lifts with a stamina-focused third minute, followed by built-in rest. The goal is to move well at 80%+ loads while managing fatigue leading into the higher-rep work.

Deadlift and Bench Press both sit at challenging load just sub maximum. We should not be going towards 3 rep maxes today, but just under that. Focus on perfect bracing, explosive intent, and controlled execution—this is not about grinding reps.

Minute 3 is the kicker: Kettlebell swings + push-ups back-to-back are a test of aerobic stamina and shoulder recovery. Swings should be unbroken, push-ups ideally in 1–2 sets. Don’t redline here, it will carry over into the lifting minutes if you push too hard.

Minute 4 rest is your opportunity to regulate heart rate, recover for the next barbell efforts and adjust loads. Focus on breathing and setup efficiency going into each barbell minute.

Movement Modifications:

• Deadlift / Bench Press: Reduce loading to ~65–75% and adjust volume to 3-5 reps to maintain more quality reps at lighter loads. Bench can be modified to floor press or dumbbell press if needed and Deadlifts could adjust to hex bar deadlifts, sumo deadlifts, or block deadlifts
• Kettlebell Swings: Scale load, or modify to Russian swings for overhead limitations.
• Push-Ups: Reduce reps to 10 or modify to incline push-ups to preserve tempo.

Goal: 25:00–35:00
Stimulus: Aerobic Grind with Full-Body Stamina & Volume
RPE: 8/10
Primary Objective: Sustain consistent pacing across all 3 rounds without blowing up early
Secondary Objective: Maintain posture and position during front rack walking lunges under fatigue
Workout Strategy:
“Run Forrest Run” is a long, gritty conditioning piece designed to test aerobic endurance, full-body stamina, and mental grit. The structure of the rounds is simple, but the volume will expose athletes who go out too hot.
The 800m run should be managed at a steady aerobic pace, something you could sustain for all three rounds with minor drop-off (think 75-80% effort).
Burpees to Target will spike the heart rate. Use a consistent cadence and stay smooth on the jump to target … don’t rush the early reps. Breathe and keep moving, even if at a bit slower pace.
The row that follows is all about posture and consistent pulls. Hold a pace you can immediately move into from the burpees. Don’t sit and recover for too long.
Finally, Dual DB walking lunges in the front rack position are going to test posture, midline, and composure. Break into 25ft (7.5m) segments if needed. Keep the bells high and elbows slightly in, avoiding a collapsed chest or soft back leg.
Movement Modifications:

Walking Lunges: Reduce distance or sub with 30 alternating DB Reverse Lunges if space-limited.

Run: Reduce to 600m or sub 2k/1.8k Bike Erg or 800/750m Ski.

Burpees to Target: Sub to standard burpees or reduce volume to 20 reps.

Row: Reduce to 400/350m or sub 1:45–2:00 effort on Echo/Ski.

Stimulus and Objectives:

Score: Total Calories on Echo Bike
Goal: 15–25 (M) / 10-20 (F) Calories Per Echo Interval

Stimulus: Upper Body Gymnastics Control + Midline Capacity + Echo Sprint Effort
RPE: 8.5/10

Primary Objective: Maintain Quality Reps on the HSPU and GHD Sit-Ups
Secondary Objective: Maximize sustainable output on the bike after gymnastics demand

Workout Strategy:
“Why So Serious?” is a test of gymnastics integrity and recovery under fatigue, with an opportunity to cash out on the bike for score. The EMOM structure builds in muscular fatigue before each sprint, requiring athletes to manage tension and output.

The strict wall-facing HSPU will challenge shoulder stamina and midline control. These should be completed in 1–2 sets (5-3 or 4-4) … form is the priority here. We like the Wall Facing Handstand Push-Ups because it develops better body alignment and strict pressing strength capacity.

GHD Sit-Ups follow up with explosive hip extension and flexion, which will challenge midline integrity towards the end of the workout. Maintain rhythm and tension without overextending or compromising breathing.

The Echo Bike should be a hard, focused effort, not an all-out sprint, while staying aggressive enough to maximize calories without crashing. Build into the pace in the first 10 seconds, hold for 30, and push in the final 5–10 seconds.

Movement Modifications:

Echo Bike: Sub with any machine if needed to accommodate class size and/or equipment limitations.

Wall-Facing Strict HSPU: Reduce to 6 reps, or modify to pike HSPU, box pike HSPU, or seated DB Z-Press (8–10 reps).

GHD Sit-Ups: Scale to 12 reps or modify to weighted Abmat Sit-Ups or V-Ups.
