[tabl class=”table-condensed” caption=”” width=”100%”] Workout A, Workout B, Workout C, Workout D6×2 HSPU at the most difficult progression you can do. Rest as needed between sets. Tempo: 31×1., 3 sets max kipping HSPU with 3 minutes rest in between., As many kipping HSPU’s as possible in 3 minutes. Add 30 seconds/cycle till you get to 5 minutes. Each cycle the goal is to get more reps than the last., 1 strict HSPU EMOM (Every Minute On the Minute) for 10 minutes. As you get better work up to 2 and 3 reps per minute. Tempo: 31×1.
[/tabl]Current ability
1 strict HSPU from the ground.
How to progress
Move to level 5 HSPU when you can do the following:
- Women: 3 strict HSPU & 9 kipping HSPU.
- Men: 5 strict HSPU & 12 kipping HSPU.
Lesson-specific notes
The purpose of this level is to increase strict and kipping HSPU capacity. In addition to a big focus on HSPU strength, we will also begin to get the technique down for kipping HSPU’s. This is eminently important for performance in Cross-Training WOD’s that have HSPU assigned. It is akin to the performance achieved by replacing strict pull-ups with kipping pull-ups.
Suggested scale during WOD’s
Knee-on-box HSPU.
