How you do anything is how you do everything. Linking heavy back squats with pull ups is a great opportunity to develop strength. Apply the same persistence in the pull-ups as you will coming out of a heavy squat. Focus on good positions in the squat and excellent shapes in the pull-ups. Skip the kip today.

The WOD should be done with a partner who will challenge you. Split the reps evenly, every 10/8 on the assault bike (these are all out sprints, so guys feeling spicy can get their sets done in 12-15 seconds each .. ladies closer to 22). Pull-ups are a full burpee to the ground, jump to the pull-up bar, dead hang, and then perform the pull-up. These are not jumping pull-ups, so be sure to make each rep good – you don’t want to have to drop and perform an extra burpee. Split these in 5s or 10s depending on your abilities.

All athletes must split reps evenly. If you can talk or walk for 10 minutes after this WOD, you didn’t go hard enough.
