Today we start and end with our calisthenic warm-up and cool down and throw a
little rowing and power cleans in the middle. There's no break between the rowing
and the power cleans. The warm-up and cool down are max or near max rep sets
with lots of rest between efforts. This is a tough one.

Today is a hybrid effort from several training modalities and tough!!
After a warm-up:
Move through the following with a 60 second break between exercises.
Row 500 meters for a record time.
Squat 20 RM weight 20 reps (20 RM is a weight you can squat 20 reps but not 21.)
Pull-up for PR (shoot for personal best)
Deadlift 10 RM weight 10 reps
Dips for PR (shoot for personal best)
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 2-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set
Rest 10 minutes
Move through the following with a 3-minute break between exercises.
Row 500 meters match first effort
Squat same weight for twenty reps
Pull-ups for same count as first set
Deadlift same weight for 10 reps
Dips for same count as first set
The idea today is to strive to match the performance of the first pass on the second and third.
Row 500 meters
Four minutes of pull-ups
Row 500 meters
Four minutes of pull-ups
Row 500 meters
Four minutes of pull-ups
Row 500 meters
Four minutes of pull-ups
Notes:
1. Row at sub 2:00 pace. No score (DQ'd for 2:00+ times)
2. Set rower for intervals of 500 meters work and four minutes rest.
3. Get back to rower before 4 minute "rest" is over.
Start immediately at end of countdown!! DQ for delay.
4. Score is total pull-up count.
5. No rest here.
After a warm-up make your first effort a heroic effort on the bike
and record the distance. Take any rest needed and give the best
dumbbell bench-press you can at fifteen reps or less. Again, rest
as long as you want then repeat both efforts. Use the same
weight for each bench press set.
If the first cycling and bench-press effort are true max efforts, then
the second and third efforts are not repeatable no matter how long the rest.
To test the quality of the first efforts and demonstrate the point of the
workout take a LONG break after each couplet.
Keep the rest between cycle effort and bench-press constant for each couplet.
