STIMULUS and GOALS
• How to Pace: CHALLENGE into GRIND! Today’s workout has us climbing the ladder through quick deadlifts and shuttle runs. Once the bottom is reached, it’s time to grind through a larger set of wall walks. The key to success is being aggressive and strategic through the middle to minimize rest and avoid burning out. When you hit the last rep of wall walks, it’s time to see if you can repeat your performance ascending back up the ladder.
• How it should Feel: GASSY and MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! How bad are you willing to hurt? Nothing will put you at risk of failure, so put your head down and go to work.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
• Deadlift: Weight is moderate (under 60% of 1RM) where all reps could be completed unbroken. However, it might be wise to pace early on and break into two quick sets if you don’t love heavier deadlifts. If you can go unbroken on the ascending reps, then go for it.
• Shuttle Run: Down and back is 1 rep (50ft total). Pacing should be moderately fast (75-80%+) while aiming to slow down the final 2-3 reps before returning to the bar. The final shuttle run (15) will be a gut check; go hard.
• Wall Walk: Try and not over rest here, maybe touch and go a few reps before getting a 3-5 second break at the bottom. Goal pace should be 4-6+ reps every minute.
