STRENGTH

1. Pull-up Work, Week 4 Day 2:

Eccentric (0-4 reps)

4 Sets: 5 x Eccentric Pull-up at BW (bodyweight) + 5%, rest 60 seconds between sets

*Each eccentric pull-up is done at a 5 second descent, with 5 second break between reps. Assist using partner! If you cannot maintain a 5 second descent, either use a partner or lessen the number of reps. If possible, add 5% of your bodyweight using weights. (i.e. if you weight 150, add 7-8 pounds.)

Volume (5-12 reps)

Every 30 Seconds for 16 Sets (8 mins total): 15% of Max Rep Set + 1

*Add 1 rep to your normal 15% set, an perform this number of strict pull-ups on the minute for 8 minutes. Do your best!

Weighted (12+ reps)

6 Sets: Max Reps (-2) @ BW+ 15%, rest 90 seconds between sets

*The (-2) means stay 2 reps shy of failure – shoot for 5+ reps each set if possible but do not go to failure each round.
