• Switch arms on DB hang clean and jerk every 5 reps. The “jerk” can be a press, push press, or any jerk variation of your choice

Overview. We have two workouts with an 8-minute rest in between. The second piece is identical to the first one except it’s only half the reps and it has strict HSPUs. The movement selection makes it possible to go 100% EFFORT in the first piece and do well in the second, so don’t hold back.
Pacing. The row is fast but it’s not a sprint. You need to be able to transition fast to the box step ups and start right away. Consistent pace in the step ups, aim for no breaks. You might think you need breaks but your legs get a break in the HSPU.
Two options in the HSPU:
1) Start with a big set, rest a little bit and then finish the rest in 1 or 2 sets.
2) Take smaller sets with a short rest. E.g. 5×10 with a 5 second rest or 10×5 with a 3 second rest.
Choose the strategy that you think will be quicker/more manageable for you.
Steady pace on the bike, try to get into your pace as soon as possible, you can lose a lot of time on the bike if you are not disciplined with yourself. The DB hang power clean & jerk will take time, switch hands every 5 reps and aim for 50 reps in 1-2 sets. The box jumps over are the last thing you do before the 8-minutes break, find an uncomfortable pace and push yourself, don’t save yourself for the next piece, you don’t need to.
You can go a little bit faster in the second row but not an all-out sprint. You can push the step ups, you can recover a bit on the strict HSPU. The strict HSPU will be the bottleneck for a lot of people. Think about taking short breaks and don’t get too close to failure in the first 15-18 reps. Try to push the bike as much as you can, there is not a lot of work left. Then it’s time for a sprint to the finish.
