FOR QUALITY (Weight)

40 Reps of Weighted Pull-Up*

*Use a weight that you can do ~5 reps at a time. Try to take short breaks between sets. All strict, no mini kips.

(Score is Weight)

GOAL: RPE 7 | …no little feet kips either. Strict and rigid. Chin over the bar. This is one those workouts that you can throw away the reps and rush through…do NOT. Feel every rep and push yourself for a weight that challenges you in the 3-5 rep range.
