Workout notes
Today’s workout is a long duration time priority couplet with high rep counts for each movement. Forty weighted step-ups is a hefty task so use a weight that keeps you moving slow and steady or ditch the weight and just perform these at bodyweight. If you are new to this style of training or you’re not accustomed to this volume consider cutting the number of reps for each set in half so you can keep moving without reaching failure. When the workout is finished your score will be your total number of completed rounds and any additional reps.
