Focus- Macro: Murph Prep- Expect to spend the month preparing for the Hero workout, Murph. You will see an increase in volume with movements like running, pull-ups, push-ups, and squats (not always together).- We will also test Cindy as a CAP benchmark.
On a 10:00 clock::30 row, bike, ski, or air runner5 scap pull-ups5 kettlebell swings (light)5 kip swings5 kettlebell strict presses/arm (light)5 wall squats1 set:5-10 pull-ups5-10 push-ups5-10 squats- Use workout variations.
- Complete at least 5 rounds.- After the warm-up, practice 5-10 reps of each movement in the workout.
Stimulus & Goals- 10-20 rounds for most.- CAP benchmark for May; last tested 240506. - Long grind with a pull, push, and squat combination without movement redundancy to allow for continuous movement. Strategy- Scale movement difficulty to allow for at least 10 rounds. Advanced athletes may be able to perform a single round in 1 minute or less.- Consider this workout a test for Murph. If you complete 10 rounds of today's workout, you will have completed 50 pull-ups, 100 push-ups, and 150 air squats. This is half the volume of Murph. However, if you perform 20 rounds of today's workout, you will have completed all of the reps in Murph in 20 minutes (which is amazing). Use the result of this workout to help determine how you'll approach Murph.- Advanced athletes who have completed Murph Rx'd previously can consider performing today's workout with a vest.ModificationsPull-ups | Reps, jumping, pull-ups, ring rowsPush-ups | Reps, push-ups from the knees, hand-elevated push-upsAir squats | Reps, range of motion
