“Rest-Pause” Pull Ups
1 x 45
The “Rest-Pause” method involves doing multiple challenging but sub-maximal effort sets. Using the same load or level of assistance as in Week 3, perform the prescribed reps as quickly as possible in sets of 1-3 reps at a time, resting as needed between sets. Practice relaxed “ribs down” breathing during your rest periods. The key is to remain shy of muscular failure and not push into and beyond it.

20 Minutes for Quality:
5-10 Strict Toes-to-Bars

If you’re beat up from “Fight Gone Bad” then take ‘er easy today. Modify Toes-to-Bars to Hanging Leg or Knee Raises as needed. The sled should be heavy but moving. Easy spin on the bike. Unbroken on the carries.
