Athlete Training Notes
Today’s individual workout is inspired by the team event 2 from last year’s semi-final. We’ve got a 15 minute AMRAP and you’ve got some choices to make. Each round starts with either 5 ring muscle ups OR 8 bar muscle ups. One is a little more taxing than the other, but the less taxing movement has more reps, so each round you’ll get to choose which one you want to go with and you can switch round to round as you see fit. But, once you select one of them for that round, you have to finish with that. Example.. round 2 I select the 5 ring muscle ups but have to break at 3. I will have to go back up for the final 2 ring muscle ups, not switch to the bar. The thrusters are where things are going to get real spicy in this workout though. It starts out nice and sweet with just 5 reps, but every round after that we’re adding 2 reps. Before you know it you’re knocking out a set of 5 ring muscle ups or 8 bar muscle ups and 7-9-11-13, etc thrusters. They’ll add up and quick. Smart breaks and using your transitions to shake the arms out before the gymnastics is going to be key. Ideally you’re taking your rest before that gymnastics movement and then pushing the transition back to the barbell knowing that you’ll be able to knock out some reps no matter how fatigued you are. You’re already going to rest before the gymnastics anyways so might as well push the transition to the bar.
