“Everyone makes mistakes. Not everyone owns them.”
Learning starts with ownership.
No one is infallible. We will all make mistakes. And we will all be part of mistakes that involve a host of other people and moving parts. But even there, even when it’s easy to blame the situation or another… let’s look inward.
To ask ourselves the simple question – “What could I have done better?” The pitfall is to think of what *others* could do, but that’s the immediate back door out of improvement. Everything starts with taking responsibility.

If you’re not quite there, adjust the rep number or choose another variation listed in “subs”
This station is ideally cleared in 90 seconds or less within the workout
SQUAT CLEANS
Choose a moderate weight for these 45 total squat cleans
This should be a load that you could cycle for 12+ reps unbroken when fresh
Strategy
DOUBLE UNDERS
Take into account how the double unders will affect the bar muscle-ups that follow
If you know big sets will “gas” you, it’s better to break up your reps on the rope to balance your effort across the two movements
If you’re confident with bar muscle-ups under fatigue, consider working through larger sets of double unders
Think about the following options:
1 Set: 100
2 Sets: 50-50
3 Sets: 40-30-30
4 Sets: 40-30-20-10 or 25’s
5 Sets: 20’s
BAR MUSCLE-UPS
Envision how you would break-up 27 bar muscle-ups for time
Whatever you believe your strategy would be, try to hold that from the beginning
There is no right or wrong – we’re just looking for the strategy that maximizes your ability on this movement
Consider the following sets:
1 Set: 9
2 Sets: 5-4
3 Sets: 3-3-3 or 4-3-2
4 Sets: 3-2-2-2
SQUAT CLEANS
While this is a weight that you could likely cycle for ‘touch and go’ reps, quick singles might be the most consistent option from the beginning
You could also include a mix of ‘touch and go’ and quick singles to get ahead in the set
For Example: You could begin each round with a larger set of ‘touch and go’ reps before immediately transitioning to quick singles to finish out the set
