SCORE: Time (includes rest)

PACE GOAL: 20:00-24:00

FEEL:

  • Interval Sprints

  • The bike will increase your heart rate and build some leg burn that will challenge your ability to stay consistent on the squat cleans and pull-ups

  • 2 minutes should allow just enough recovery to push the pace again

  • The third round will also have a good amount of muscular endurance fatigue

STRATEGY:

  • RPE of 7-8 on the bike, don’t blow yourself up, but you still need to move at a challenging pace

  • Steady singles all the way through on the squat cleans

  • Try to stay unbroken on the pull-ups

EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS:

  • If you do not have enough bikes an option that is a bit challenging is to have two people share a bike and have the second person start 2 minutes later. This should give the first person time to get their bike done before the second person would start. With the two minutes rest between rounds

PARTNER OPTION:

  • Split all reps as needed, this could allow some people to do the Rx movements, but in less volume
