Goals / Stimulus / Objectives
Goal Time Domain: 15-18 minutes
Time Cap: 22 minutes
Primary Objective: We are looking to complete each round in sub 5-6 minutes.
Secondary Objective: Focus on a priority movement. This will probably be either the Front Squat or Pull-Ups and use this as a good day to lean into development here of big sets on one or the other. The goal will be to maintain good positions and consistent sets across all 3 rounds of each movement.
Stimulus: Full Body Muscular Endurance Triplet
RPE: 8/10

• This is meant to be a technically challenging WOD that will challenge our skill capacity and endurance.

Workout Strategy Notes:
This workout is a grip-heavy, leg-taxing, and lung-burning test of endurance and muscular stamina. The combination of rowing, squatting, and high-rep gymnastics demands strategic pacing and smart movement transitions to avoid early burnout.

Primary Objective: Consistency on the Barbell. Looking to keep each set of Power Clean and Push Jerks in under 45 seconds (9 sec / rep)
Secondary Objective: Looking to complete the run + burpee box jump overs in under 2:00 minutes each round.
Stimulus: Barbell Cycling and Quad Stamina
RPE: 9/10

Workout Strategy Notes:
200m Run
Aim for 75-85% effort—fast but not all-out sprinting.
Use this portion to regulate breathing before hitting the burpee box jump overs.
If running is a weakness, focus on an efficient stride and pulling up the legs to keep your heart rate under control.
9 Burpee Box Jump Overs
Stay smooth & steady—rushing will spike your heart rate.
Use a step-up or pivot technique coming out of the burpee to save energy.
If needed, consider a quick pause before jumping to maintain control rather than burning out early.
Avoid standing fully on the box—land low and step off to reduce impact.
6 Power Clean & Push Jerks (185/125 lb, 84/57 kg)
Singles vs. touch-and-go?
Singles (recommended for most athletes): Drop from the top, reset quickly, and go again with consistent pacing.
Touch-and-go (advanced athletes): If you can manage 3+ unbroken reps without excessive fatigue, it may save time.
Breathe at the top of the jerk or between reps in order to stay composed.
Ensure a strong dip and drive in the jerk—fatigue will make pressing out tempting, but efficiency wins here.
