Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.

Strict Gymnastics Accessory Option
Four sets of:
False-Grip Strict Ring Pull-Ups to Sternum x 6-8 reps
Rest 60 seconds
False-Grip Ring to Sternum Hold x 30 seconds

Run 1600 Meters @ 80-85% of 1-Mile Pace

Rowing Endurance Option
Four sets for times of:
Row 1550 Meters
Rest 4 minutes

Your goal should be to maintain consistent pacing across the four sets – but all sets should be performed faster than your 1500s from April 2. If you’ve been wearing a heart-rate monitor, you should also be noticing that your heart rate is remaining lower at the same or faster paces during these intervals, and hopefully dropping back to a bit lower beats per minute during your rest intervals.

Looks like you adjusted well buddy. I’d expect you to do everything as written if you weren’t cut for time.

Just remember to add load to those wall sits next time 🙂

They wouldn’t have been much faster even if I was fresh. High volume ttb are tough on me. These long legs get difficult to get up here.

Hey
Got another question
Second part of deadlifts (every 2 min deadlift *5)
This should be touch and go?
Thanks

I like athletes to lower these to the floor (don’t ghost ride or drop), reset and most importantly always go double overhand for strength portions. You may use straps. In workouts do what’s best to go fast 🙂
