    Skill

    7 sets of 4 strict pull ups
    Banded, strict, or weighted

    Rest about a minute between sets

    Pick a difficulty that lets you hang on to sets of 4 across all 7 rounds, though it should get challenging by the end. If you’re very strong on this movement, consider adding some weight to it! Don’t kip!

    Workout of the Day

    6 rounds:
    40 seconds of push jerks
    20 seconds of rest
    40 seconds of calories
    20 seconds of rest

    Grab a barbell that lets you hang on to quick sets of about 5 reps. Don’t plan on getting too much recovery during the “rest” intervals; 20 seconds will pretty much just be enough for the transition to the next movement, so plan your pacing as though this is a 12 minute AMRAP.
