STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! This workout has two high skill movements in it. Aim for a steady pace and good movement. This is also a lot of Handstand Walking so if you know this isn’t your strength, break up the walk into 2 sets.
How it should Feel: GASSY! It overall is a shoulder burner more than a lung burner. The shoulder fatigue will come from the handstand walk course, but also expect an elevated heart rate and burning in the legs from the pistols.
WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Handstand Walks: For Games/SemiFinals we want unbroken 50′ sections. Make sure to take a little rest before each go in order to make it without falling. This is a great time to add some volume in on the course.
Pistol Squats: 10 is a low number, so find balance and gooooo. If you strugle with pistols, focus on good reps and full range of motion.
