Feel

Very hot efforts, but movement quality stays crisp across all blocks.

  • - Score: total reps. Total reps across all intervals; keep best and worst rounds within 20%.
  • - Count only clean reps. The goal is high repeatable output, not one heroic first interval.
  • - Stop gymnastics sets 1-2 reps before failure so the next set starts quickly.

Perform 2 rounds of the following warm-up circuit. Move deliberately — the warm-up prepares joints as much as heart rate.

20 sec max effort / 10 sec rest × 8 rounds per block. A→B→C→D repeated twice per block (8 rounds × 30 sec). Varied muscle groups, balanced fatigue. Repeat the block 4 times (rest 60 sec between blocks) = 16 min total. Score = total reps. Target: Total reps across all intervals; keep best and worst rounds within 20%. Stimulus: Fast cyclical power output with minimal skill bottlenecks.
