Score = Sum Total of Rep (All 8 Sets Combined)

“Cindy” = 5 Pull-Ups + 10 Push-Ups + 15 Air Squats

Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals

“Dune” is a gritty, aerobic stamina test that mixes monostructural machines with high-rep bodyweight gymnastics under fatigue. The structure of short work bouts with brief rests demands smart pacing, consistent transitions, and strategic recovery.

Goal: Maintain strong, sustainable efforts across both sets

Stimulus: Aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and mental resilience

RPE: 8/10

Consistent output on machines, fast and efficient bodyweight movement on “Cindy”

Key focus areas:

Avoid blowing up early on the row and bike; keep effort manageable

Keep “Cindy” rounds fast but smooth, without burning out on push-ups

Transition quickly and purposefully between movements
Movement Breakdown & Strategy

3:00 Max Calorie Row

Pace should be around 80-85% effort. Focus on strong, efficient strokes with a controlled recovery. Keep the stroke rate in the 26-30 range and emphasize powerful leg drive rather than frantic pulling. Save a small sprint for the final 15-20 seconds of the interval.

3:00 AMRAP of “Cindy” (5 Pull-Ups + 10 Push-Ups + 15 Air Squats)

Move quickly through the rounds with minimal rest.

Pull-ups: Aim for unbroken sets or very quick breaks (no more than 2 sets).

Push-ups: Break early into 5-5 if needed to prevent muscular failure later.

Air squats: Stay smooth, upright, and consistent—this is your recovery within the cycle.

The goal is about 3-5+ rounds per 3:00 depending on ability.

Strategy (No Measure)

3:00 Max Calorie Echo Bike

Steady and strong effort. Hold a pace you can maintain without spiking heart rate too early (~80-85% effort).

Men: 55-65 RPM

Women: 48-58 RPM

Use full-body drive—push/pull with the arms and strong pedal strokes with the legs. Again, save a mild sprint for the final 20 seconds.

3:00 AMRAP of “Cindy”

Same strategy as the first AMRAP. Expect more fatigue in push-ups and pull-ups here, so adjust rep breaks slightly sooner if needed. Stay moving through the air squats to maintain round pace.

Pacing & Recovery Tips

Row and bike pacing should be sustainable—no full sprints until the final seconds.

In “Cindy,” manage push-up fatigue early—fast, consistent movement is better than crashing midway.

Shake out arms quickly between transitions but don’t waste time.

Use the :5-:10 breaks smartly—stand tall, slow breathing, prepare for the next station.

Aim to keep your second set close to your first set’s total reps.

Barbell Load: MRx 5/65lb, 43/30kg, Rx 155/105lb, 70/48kg

Score: Total Working Time

Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals

“The Jedi Trials” is a repeatable, high-effort interval workout combining monostructural running, high-skill gymnastics, and moderate-to-heavy barbell cycling. Each round demands a strong balance between engine, grip endurance, and overhead stability. The goal is to maintain consistent splits across all four sets, without allowing any round to fall off significantly.

Goal : 3:30-4:00 / Round

Stimulus : Lactate threshold, aerobic power, and midline stamina

RPE : 8.5/10

Focus : Smooth running, smart grip management, aggressive but efficient shoulder-to-overhead reps

Primary Objective : Consistent pacing round to round

Secondary Objective : Push for unbroken or smartly broken sets on the shoulder-to-overhead without major rest
Movement Breakdown & Strategy

400m Run

Pace should be strong but controlled (~80-85% effort). Focus on quick foot turnover and relaxed breathing. You want to come off the run breathing hard but still able to immediately start toes-to-bar without a long break. Use the final 50m of the run to control breathing and prepare for the rig.

21 Toes-to-Bar

Grip and midline fatigue will accumulate over rounds. Break early and smart:

Advanced: 11-10 or 12-9

Intermediate: 8-7-6 or 7-7-7

Beginner: 5-5-5-6

Maintain a tight arch/hollow swing to stay efficient. Relax the grip when possible and avoid over-swinging. Modifications include knees-to-chest or hanging knee raises if needed.

Strategy (No Measure)

12 Shoulder to Overhead (155/105 lb, 70/48 kg)

Choose the most efficient style based on fatigue: Ideally Push Jerk is the movement we are moving towards today.

Advanced athletes should aim for unbroken sets.

If breaking is necessary, plan for 7-5 or 6-6 with a very short rest.

Focus on a strong dip and vertical drive through the bar. Keep elbows slightly in front of the dip to maintain bar path efficiency.

Pacing & Recovery Tips

Treat the first run as your baseline—find a pace you can replicate four times.

Break toes-to-bar proactively before you hit grip fatigue.

Breathe intentionally during the barbell work—recover while locking out overhead.

Aim to finish each working set in 4:00 or less to earn at least 1:00-1:30 rest before starting the next round.

Your score is the slowest round, so consistency is more important than one blazing fast set.

Box Height: 24/20in

Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals

“District Throwdown” is a classic sprint-style couplet with moderate-to-heavy deadlifts and high-output box jump overs. The workout is short and intense, targeting posterior chain stamina, explosive power, and metabolic conditioning. Athletes should push the pace while maintaining tight form under fatigue.

Time Domain : 4-7min

Time Cap: 10 min

Stimulus: Sprint effort, power output, and fatigue resistance

RPE : 9/10

Focus: Unbroken or fast-broken deadlift sets and aggressive, efficient box movement

Primary Objective: Move fast, but not recklessly—this is a short workout, but grip and legs will blow up quickly if not managed.

Secondary Objective : Minimize transition time and keep sets quick and tight.
Movement Breakdown & Strategy

Deadlifts (21-15-9 at 225/155 lb, 102/70 kg)

Push for unbroken sets if deadlift capacity allows. If needed, break into quick sets with minimal rest (e.g. 12-9, 8-7, 5-4) to avoid form breakdown. Keep a neutral spine and strong hinge—bracing before each pull is key. Use a mixed grip or hook grip if grip fatigue is a limiter. Breathe at the top and stay tight on the descent.

Box Jump Overs (24”/20”)

Stay close to the box and move with intent—step down or jump down depending on your capacity and control. Use a rhythm that allows steady breathing and efficient movement. If you’re sprinting, consider lateral jump-overs or fast turnarounds for transitions. Avoid pausing at the top of the box.

Strategy (No Measure)

Pacing & Recovery Tips

Round of 21: Start fast but stay composed—this round sets the tone.

Round of 15: Settle into your rhythm, aim to hold your splits.

Round of 9: Empty the tank—go unbroken and keep box jumps aggressive but clean.

Keep rest between bar and box minimal—transitions are where time is lost or gained.

Final Thoughts

This is a fast burner with a high return on effort. Focus on quality deadlift mechanics and relentless pace on the box. Stay just shy of redline early so you can push hard through the final set.

Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals

This workout is a partner-based endurance and stamina challenge, combining gymnastics, weightlifting, and conditioning. The key to success is efficient rep transitions, strategic workload distribution, and smooth pacing on the run to maximize performance without redlining too soon.

Goal: 20-26 minutes

Time Cap: 30 minutes

Stimulus: Muscular endurance and aerobic stamina

RPE: 8/10

Primary Objective: Smart rep schemes, controlled breathing, and consistent movement.

Secondary Objective: Run together at a pace that allows smooth transitions into the next movement. Distribute reps to minimize fatigue buildup, especially in the high-volume wall ball sets. Keep transitions short and efficient to maintain momentum.
Movement Breakdown & Strategy

400m Run (x3)

Find a sustainable pace (~75-80% effort) that allows a smooth transition into the next movement without excessive recovery time. Stay close to your partner and control breathing to be ready for the next exercise. If one partner is faster, adjust pace so you can start working immediately upon finishing.

60 Handstand Push-Ups

Break early and often to prevent burnout. Advanced athletes may aim for 10-15 reps per set, while intermediate students should stick to 5-8. Keep a strong kip and fast lockout to save shoulder endurance. Modify to box pike push-ups or strict dumbbell presses if needed.

60 Wall Balls

Break into quick, manageable sets (15-15-10-10-10) to maintain speed without excessive rest. Keep a smooth squat-to-throw rhythm, breathing at the top of each rep. Stay close to your partner for fast handoffs.

80 Alternating Dumbbell Snatches

Aim for sets of 10-15 per partner. Use a strong hip drive to avoid excessive shoulder fatigue. Keep the dumbbell close to the body and control the lockout at the top.

Strategy (No Measure)

80 Wall Balls

Same strategy as the first set, but consider slightly smaller sets (10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10) to maintain speed without slowing down.

10 Wall Walks

Break into 2-3 reps per turn to prevent excessive fatigue. Move steadily and focus on efficient, controlled ascents rather than rushing and risking no-reps. Modify to reduce range of motion if needed.

100 Wall Balls

This is the final push—break into manageable sets of 10-12 reps per turn and keep rest minimal. Keep the ball moving and sprint the last 10-20 reps if possible to finish strong.

Pacing & Recovery Tips

Stay efficient on transitions, moving into the next movement without long breaks. Break sets early to avoid excessive fatigue, especially on pressing movements. Manage your partner strategy—communicate clearly when switching to avoid unnecessary time loss.

Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals

This workout is a moderate-to-high skill gymnastics and barbell cycling workout combined with aerobic conditioning on the rower. The key is to move efficiently, control breathing, and manage muscle fatigue to maintain a steady pace across all rounds.

Goal : Sub-10 minutes

Time Domain: 7-11 minutes

Time Cap: 15 minutes

Stimulus : Aerobic stamina and muscular endurance

RPE: 8.5/10

Primary Objective: Maintain consistent pacing across all three rounds. Manage grip fatigue between the dumbbells and toes-to-bar. Keep transitions quick and intentional to avoid unnecessary time loss.

Secondary Objective: Smooth transitions and steady movement rather than sprinting through any one section.
Movement Breakdown & Strategy

Calorie Row (21-15-9 | Female: 15-12-9)

Pacing should be moderate-to-high effort (~80%) to keep output consistent without spiking heart rate. Target stroke rate should be 26-30 strokes per minute with a strong leg drive and smooth recovery. Breathe in sync with the pull, exhaling on the drive and controlling breath on the return. Modify by reducing calories or maintaining an effort that allows unbroken dumbbell work after the row. Transition Tip: Row to dumbbells should be immediate—no more than 5 seconds before picking them up.

Dual Dumbbell Power Cleans (21-15-9, 50/35 lb | 22.5/15 kg)

Advanced athletes should aim for big sets or controlled breaks (12-9, 8-7, 6-3) to stay consistent. Use a quick hip hinge and avoid excessive arm pull. Legs drive the movement—minimize fatigue in the arms. Dumbbells should land on the shoulders smoothly—no crashing down. Transition Tip: Breathe and shake out the arms before moving to the rig.

Strategy (No Measure)

Toes-to-Bar (21-15-9)

Break early if necessary to avoid grip burnout from the dumbbells. Advanced athletes can try 12-9, 8-7, 6-3. Intermediate should aim for 7-7-7, 6-5-4, or 5-4, while beginners should use quick sets of 3-5. Control the kip swing and avoid letting legs drop too aggressively. Keep a tight hollow-body position to avoid unnecessary energy loss. Relax the grip between reps where possible to prevent forearm burnout. Scaling options: knee to elbows, alternating toe to bar, hanging knee raises, or V-ups for those not yet comfortable with the rig. Transition Tip: Move directly back to the rower with no long breaks between rounds.

Pacing & Recovery Tips

Avoid redlining in the first round—pace so that effort can increase in the round of 15. Short, intentional breaks on dumbbells and toes-to-bar will prevent late-round burnout. Transitions should be short and efficient, keeping each break under 5 seconds. Push hard on the final round of 9—empty the tank for the sprint finish.
