Metcon
Goal is big Unbroken sets, choose a rep scheme that allows you to maybe hang on to unbroken sets as long as possible. If you know you only do 1-2 Pull ups or HSPUs at a time RX+ probably isn’t the best option to maintain intensity.
– Pistols: Heel on plate? Hang on rings? Use a box and do negatives? Step Ups? choose a movement that makes you work hard!
– HSPUs: Pike, regular push ups
– Pull Ups: Jumping, Ring Rows
