Before you start. Take a moment to estimate how fast you think you’ll go on each part. This is a good self-awareness and strategy practice that’ll help you prepare for competitions.
Overview. A beefed up take on 2022 QF workout. There’s an interesting dynamic here between decreasing reps and increasing difficulty on the lunges.
Strategy. Aim to keep the double-unders to minimal sets, but break them into manageable chunks with short rests to minimise trip-ups and maintain a consistent rhythm if needed. Do your best to stay relaxed and control your breathing before moving to each round of lunges.
Focus on a consistent pace for each set of lunges, planning smart breaks to ensure you can keep getting back to work quickly and avoid getting stuck. When you get to the front rack and overhead lunges, managing shoulder fatigue for the handstand push-ups should also be a consideration.
Approach each round of handstand push-ups and bar muscle-ups based on your proficiency and capacity. Regardless of your approach, be sure to have a plan that allows for breaks to remain short before getting back to work.
Instructions. Set up equipment 2-3m apart to allow for easy transitions (this is your built-in rest).
Debrief.
– How was your overall approach? Did you have the right strategy for each movement?
– Could you keep your breaks short?
– Were you able to stay relaxed on the rope? Did you break the lunges, HSPUs and bMUs into smart sets?
– What would you adapt in your strategy to improve your result if you were to do the workout again?
– What two (2) things can you be proud of in this session? What one (1) thing must you improve?
