5 rounds for time of:
5 rope climbs to 15 feet
200-foot Zercher carry
♀ 105-lb barbell
♂ 155-lb barbell
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a longer duration couplet. The high volume of rope climbs will be taxing for your grip. Be sure to find a sustainable pace to ensure you don't hit failure. If you are performing the Zercher carry, expect it to make the rope climbs more challenging. Be sure to manage your fatigue and rest as needed. Watch the video to see how to perform the Zercher carry. Find a loading that allows you to make it at least to the 100-foot mark before putting the bar down.
Intermediate option:

For time:
30 box jump overs
150 air squats
1,600-meter run
♀ 24-inch box
♂ 30-inch box
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a moderate duration chipper. Expect the box jump overs with the higher box to exhaust your legs and make the air squats more difficult. Keep moving through the air squats, even if your legs are tired from the box jump overs. If needed, slow your pace, breathe, and keep on moving. The combination of box jump overs and air squats will also likely make the start of the run more difficult. Plan to get yourself moving, find a rhythm, and empty the tank to finish strong.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll take on a descending rep triplet that combines moderately heavy barbell work, paired with burpees. Choose a barbell load that allows you to move through the front squats in no more than 3 sets each round and perform quick singles on the power cleans. Plan to complete the largest set of lateral burpees over the bar in no more than 90 seconds.

Pre- and post workout accessory:*
Max set of strict pull ups
*Complete 1 set before and 1 set after the workout.
3 rounds for time of:
400/500-meter row
40 AbMat sit ups
30 alternating dumbbell snatches
♀ 35-lb dumbbell
♂ 50-lb dumbbell
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is simple, yet challenging, with a goal time of 13-18 minutes. Each row is intended to be completed at a moderate to hard pace that allows for completion in 1:45-2:15 — scale the distances to get you close to these time range goals. The sit up volume is high, and 40 reps will be difficult to achieve at a rapid pace, but shoot to complete these in no more than 2 minutes; scale as needed to do so. Choose a moderate dumbbell snatch load that allows you to complete at least 15-20 reps consecutively. The demand of this movement will be made more difficult due to the row and sit ups that precede it. It will take time to establish the correct mechanics and the correct load prior to starting the workout.
Intermediate option:
Pre- and post workout accessory:*
Max set of strict pull ups

Deadlift 5-5-5-5-5 reps
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a classic heavy day. Look back at April 29, 2025, to find your last heavy 5-rep deadlift to help gauge your target loading today. Plan to lift heavy, relative to your capacity, either sticking with the same load across all 5 sets or beginning the first set of 5 at 65% or higher of your recent 1-rep max and building from there. Newer athletes and those who struggle to maintain sound mechanics on the deadlift will hold at lighter weights to improve mechanics and consistency before challenging near maximal loads.

50-foot handstand walk
Max kettlebell swings
Rest 1 minute between sets. Repeat for a total of 4 sets.
♀ 35-lb kettlebell
♂ 53-lb kettlebell
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll take on four AMRAPs, where you'll need to get through a run and a handstand walk before accumulating max kettlebell swings. Your score is the total kettlebell swings you complete over the 4 sets. Choose scaling options as needed to ensure you have at least 30 seconds to perform kettlebell swings each round. Shoot to finish each run in under 1:15 and each handstand walk distance in under 1 minute. Your chosen kettlebell weight should allow you to perform the reps unbroken or with no more than one break. Find a run pace that's challenging but allows you to start your handstand walk as soon as you finish.
Intermediate option:

21-15-9 reps for time of:
Dumbbell box step overs
Chest to bar pull ups
♀ 35-lb dumbbells and a 20-inch box
♂ 50-lb dumbbells and a 20-inch box
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you'll take on a grippy workout that will challenge you to be smart about breaks, while still pushing intensity. Choose a load that allows you to continue moving with minimal breaks on the dumbbell box step overs. Plan to hold the dumbbells at your sides in a farmers carry position. Scale the pull ups as needed for you to complete the reps in 1-3 sets each round. The descending rep scheme should allow you to keep the intensity up even as your grip and shoulders fatigue.

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 9 minutes of:
12 alternating dumbbell hang snatches
6 dumbbell overhead squats, left arm
6 dumbbell overhead squats, right arm
12 lateral jumps over the dumbbell
♀ 35-lb dumbbell
♂ 50-lb dumbbell
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, we have a short AMRAP with some intended pressing interference between the snatches and overhead squats. Efficient use of your hips in the snatch will save your shoulders a bit for the overhead squats. Keep your working arm locked out in the overhead squat to maintain the ability to push through fatigue. Use the lateral jumps to catch your breath and allow your shoulders to rest before starting the next set of snatches.

Every minute on the minute for 8 minutes:
2 shoulder presses
Add weight every 2 minutes. Use 50-60% of the heaviest set for the workout.
Then,
4 rounds for time of:
400-meter run
12 shoulder presses
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a sneaky upper body pressing stamina day. Expect these shoulder presses to be a bit more challenging with an elevated heart rate. The loading for intermediate and Rx'd athletes will be 50-60% of their heaviest set in the strength work. This loading should feel light to moderate and allow you to perform your reps in 2 sets or less. This is a good starting point, and you can always adjust as needed. Plan on taking the barbell out of a rack during the EMOM, but for the workout, you will take the barbell from the ground. Push the pace on each run. Get to the bar, pick it up, and get right to work.
Intermediate option:
Same as Rx'd.
