Workout Overview

Stimulus

Choose a run distance that takes less than 2:00 to complete and pull-up rep number that you can do unbroken each time. We're looking for fast rounds that take under 2:15 to complete, giving you 0:45 of rest between rounds. Your score is your slowest round, so pick a pace from the beginning that you think you can replicate each round.

Scoring

Score: Slowest Round

Movements

Target Score: 1:45-2:15

Stimulus: VO2 Max [RPE 7-8]

Run: 2:00 or Less

Pull-Up: Unbroken sets.

The One | Teaching Focus

Core Engagement In Pull-Ups

Emphasize the importance of core engagement throughout the movement. A tight core provides stability and helps prevent excessive swinging.

Strategies

Today's pacing should be challenging and fast-paced. We aren't going ALL OUT, but this should be above a sustainable pace, requiring rest in order to complete the next round in the same amount of time. 

An RPE 7-8 is as fast as your mile PR pace and up to 1:30 slower.

MINDSET

"Deep listening is miraculous for both listener and speaker. When someone receives us with open-hearted, non-judging, intensely interested listening, our spirits expand."

Listening deeply and without judgment can profoundly impact both the speaker and the listener, fostering connection and understanding.
