Workout Intent

This is week 2 of our gymnastics-biased training progressions. We're shifting from technique-focused gymnastics to a more intense "skill endurance" session. Warm up thoroughly to optimize your performance.

Workout Target

The intensity will be higher than last week. Set a goal for each AMRAP and pace yourself accordingly. Aim for big sets on the gymnastic movements; pace the barbell to enable this.

Workout Feel

This session will be tough, mainly limited by your ability to maintain larger sets on gymnastics. Plan your pacing carefully!
