General Training Notes:
Please film your bar muscle-up skill work if you are trying to get your first bar muscle-up or are working at becoming for efficient with them.
For the speed deadlifts you are increasing the load but dropping the sets by one. The focus is maximal speed on each lift. By maximal speed we mean we want you visualizing as though you were jumping with the barbell you exploded up so hard. If the bar is slowing down at all, stop or reduce the loading.
Then grab a friend and have them join you for this workout! The reps are short so transition quickly on this one. Hit the run at your mile pace, unbroken on the push-press, unbroken on the wall balls, and smooth and consistent on the box jump overs. Remember we’re hitting the jump overs as open-style from 2022 so work on jumping, spinning, and stepping off the box. Start at a relaxed pace and try to hold that relaxed pace throughout the eight rounds.
