Three sets of:

Athlete Notes:
Hit the runs/bikes a consistent pace then come inside and get to work on the bench press. The goal on the bench is unbroken reps – it should be a weight that you can comfortably move for 9 reps in a row even with an elevated heart rate. As soon as you finish that start cranking out some strict pull-ups. We’re accumulating 60+ reps so you’ll likely have to break quite a few times, but try to hang on for big sets if you can to really get a pump in your lats. After the last pull-up you’ll go straight into the toes to bar which we’re expecting 1-2 sets for you to finish. Keep moving through this at a consistent pace for the full 25 minutes.
