Workout notes

We have a fairly long workout on the menu today.  You’ll need a box for box jumps and a station for pull-ups.  The workout calls for strict pull-ups so setup a band or rings if twenty minutes of strict pull-ups seems daunting.  Dropping down to single reps will probably have for a lot of people but if one rep is a struggle early on, you’ll probably want to scale in some fashion.  For push-ups you can reduce the range of motion by performing them on your knees or use your box to effectively reduce your bodyweight.  With two strict bodyweight movements and a large set of box jumps in every round, slow and steady will win the race. Break up the arm movements often and don’t forget to lock into a sustainable cadence on the box jumps.
