Athlete Notes:
Today’s workout was taken straight from one of the recent semi-final events (Strength in Depth). We love to hit some workouts that we’ve seen elite athletes do because it gives us times to chase as well as a way to evaluate where we’re at with specific movements. This one is going to test your ability to handle higher volume ring muscle ups as well as cycle a moderate barbell when your grip and legs are fatigued. Your goal on the ring muscle ups should be 1-3 sets for each round. The pistols should be completed at a pace that is consistent with your abilities. If you’re a pistol ninja then start smashing those out. If you know that your place to push on this workout is going to be the muscle ups or the barbell, then remain controlled and consistent on the pistols. Try to drop right into the next squat each time. The final movements is the 9 hang power snatches. This should be a weight that you could complete the 9 reps in 3 sets or less. Have some fun with this one and use it as an opportunity to compare yourself to some of the best athletes out there.
