Stimulus & strategy

A couplet of a heavy pull and an inverted press. The deadlifts should be quick; the handstand push-ups are usually the limiter.

Standards
  • · Rx men: 102 kg · Rx women: 70 kg
  • · Deadlift to full hip and knee extension; strict HSPU, head to the floor, arms locked at the top.
Scaling
  • · Reduce the deadlift so the 21 is at most two quick sets.
  • · Scale HSPU to pike push-ups off a box or to a target you can string together.
Coaching tips
  • · Touch-and-go the deadlifts only while your form is crisp: singles are fine.
  • · Break the handstand push-ups before failure to avoid a long time stuck at the wall.
