STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! This workout is a long one with a near consistent work to rest ratio. Effort should be high, but maintainable for repeatable performances across all sets.
How it should Feel: GASSY and GRIPPY! With the intensity ramped up, unbroken barbell cycling and gymnastics you best be trying to get your heart rate under control during your rest. All pull with every station so shake the arms out and be ready for the burn.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Row: Pace on the row should be moderately-fast (80%) with the goal to stay sub 45 seconds.
Power Clean and Jerks: Light-moderate weight (40% of 1RM or less) where unbroken is the only option. Stay smooth and consistent with reps mirroring each other.
Muscle Ups: Unbroken! This will be challenging after everything that your body has gone through. Be sure to pick a number that you know you can stay unbroken without the risk of failure.

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! We have an upper body mixed with a lower-body dominant machine here. Feel out the first set and look to improve to moderately-high intensity as sets go on.
How it should Feel: GASSY! Both will tax their target areas, but we want to use total body on both movements. Enjoy the rest, and try to get your heart rate under control before the switch.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Echo: Ramp up the rpms off the start and then look to settle into a moderately-fast pace. Push and pull with your arms to help assist the legs and remember to push all the way through since rest will follow.
Ski: Long and strong from the top to bottom during your pull. Breathe through the motion and remember to roll your shoulders out during the ascent. Off the start try to get the fan moving by performing 2-3 short-quick pulls and then settle into a push pace.
Goal for both machines should be to keep work to rest ratio 1:1. That means we need to finish in 45 seconds or less.
