Tuesday

"Only a man who knows what it’s like to be defeated, can reach down to the bottom of his soul with the extra ounce of power to win, when the match is even.” – Mohammed Ali It’s commonplace to look at mistakes, miscues, and losses as negatives. And it’s even more common, to view them as setbacks. Yet here, one of the greatest of time, offers the difference maker in an otherwise even fight between two opponents: Failure. Through the experience of failure, the fighter becomes the victor. Not because of the pain of loss, or the embarrassment of defeat. But through viewing failure as a chance to start again, more equipped. More prepared. More experienced.

Strategy

GENERAL
While this looks like a ton of work on paper, the workout is very front loaded
Progress will feel slow initially, but will speed up as the workout moves along
The majority of the work takes place in the first two rounds
Staying laser focused on 1 station at a time can help this descending rep workout feel more manageable
It can be helpful to think of each of these windows as 3-minute AMRAPs instead of a big ""for time"" workout
BIKE ERG
While there is a big payoff for putting out on the bike, this may be the best station to just keep moving forward
This is the simplest movement in the workout other than the sit-ups
Moving at a steady pace will allow you to catch your breath and ""reload"" for the challenging movements that follow, while still getting off the machine in a respectable time
Getting off the bike in 1 minute means you'll have twice as much time for the scored movements
On the bike erg, cruising around 950/750 calories per hours will get you done in this time frame without smashing you for the other stations
DOUBLE UNDERS, SIT-UPS, KIPPING HANDSTAND PUSH-UPS
The big thing to take into consideration here is how to approach the double unders and handstand push-ups
With a heavily front loaded workout, it's all about getting through the first 2 rounds efficiently
Break up these movements before you feel like you're going to hit failure
This allows you to rest less between sets and sustain your pace through the final 3 rounds
Being slightly more conservative in the first 2 rounds can afford you the opportunity to be more aggressive as the reps get smaller

DEAD STOP STRICT HANDSTAND PUSH-UPS
Dead stop strict handstand push-ups mean you'll come to a pause at the bottom of each rep
This pause will last just a quick 1 second
It is designed to stop your momentum in order to better develop strength through the full range of motion
If this is a challenging movement, complete it with your feet on a box to reduce the amount of weight you are pressing
