I hope you all are as excited about this workout as I am! We are building your pull-up endurance each week but, with that being said, if you feel like you are going to rip at all during the workout then please stop immediately. It is nnot worth it!
Your run is your ‘reset’ in this workout. Stay focused during your run but go at a pace that will allow you to run right up to the pull-up bar and you go straight into your pull-ups. For the majority of you I’d suggest breaking early on the pull-ups. You could go 10/10 or 12/8 if you are confident with your pull-up endurance or start with 10/5/5 or 5/5/5/5. How you break up your pull-ups will be up to you but trust us when we say to break early.
Choose what type of burpee you’ll employ on the workout. Will it be the all out style where you drop to the floor, pop up and immediately jump over the barbell? Will it be a slightly slower burpee to regulate your heart rate where you drop to the floor, take a step up and then jump over the bar? Or will it be a measured burpee where you step up and walk to the bar to jump over? It depends on what type of athlete you are and how comfortable you feel with each type of burpee so practice the different styles before you go to see which option best fits you.
Take the barbell from tthe floor for your shoulder to overhead. Please reduce the load if you’ll need to do the reps in more than three sets.
