Focus
- Macro: Preparing for the Open
- A continuation of the previous month. Expect to see prior Open workouts repeated as well as efforts that test your capacity to keep moving and pushing forward for one more rep. Remember, every second counts.
- We will also test Grace, a 2K row, and a 3-rep-max front squat.

- Try to keep the jump rope moving for the entire two minutes. Perform any skip you want.
- Use the EMOM to work on the movements you will perform in the workout.

Stimulus & Goals
- 12:00-21:00; 15:00-18:00 for most.
- Partners share the rope climbs, wall walks, and muscle-ups as needed and perform the 20 synchronized burpees at a time together.
- Burpees in 2:00 or less.
- Rope climbs, wall walks, and muscle-ups each in 5:00 or less.

Strategy
- If you are unable to perform this workout with a partner, perform the same workout with 20 burpees and then 10 rope climbs, 10 wall walks, and 10 muscle-ups.
- Expect muscle fatigue to be a huge factor in this workout. Switch with your partner often and don't push to failure unless it's to finish the set.

Modifications

Rope climb | Reps, height, pull-to-stands

- Welcome to week one of the second 2025 Strength 2 lifting cycle where we shift from the deadlift to the back squat.
- Use the same load for sets 4 and 5, but go for more than 5 reps in that final set without pushing to failure.
- Rest as needed between sets.

- Rounds in 2:30 or less. Advanced athletes push for sub-2:00.
- Use any available bike.
- Push as hard as possible on each round vs. pacing.
- If you use an Echo or Assault Bike, incorporate your arms as much as possible. On the C2 Bike, try and push through the heavy feeling in your legs.
