Goal: 1:15–2:00 per set / Total Time: 7-11min
Time Cap: 12min
Stimulus: Grip Fatigue Management / Upper Body Interference
RPE: 8.5/10
Primary Objective: Keep Pull-Ups fast and controlled, ideally unbroken
Secondary Objective: Maintain sharp mechanics on Devil’s Press despite fatigue
Workout Strategy:
This is a sprint-style upper body interference workout where grip endurance and breathing under tension are key. The pull-ups should be quick, unbroken for higher-level athletes, or in fast sets of 8-7,10-5, or 5-5-5 to prevent early burnout.
The Devil’s Press will be the crux of this workout and demand a lot of energy. Look to stay steady here and keep on a good pace as you have the 1:00 rest after each set. The rest period will allow for partial recovery, but fatigue will build, so pacing is still necessary and consistent paces for each set across are what we are really looking for here.
Movement Modifications:
Pull-Ups: Banded Pull-Ups or Jumping Pull-Ups are the primary go to today. If needed we can also look to reduce the rep range as well or move to Ring Rows
Devil’s Press: Our first modification would be to reduce the load, then next we would look to move to a single arm devils press or substitute with 5 Burpee + Double Dumbbell Ground-to-Overhead.
