The Shortcut To Mental Toughness

"Strict Little Devil"40 min

5 Rounds for time of:
800m Run
8 Strict Pull-ups
12 Single Arm Devil Press (50/35)

Time Cap: 40 Minutes

Stimulus
  • Overview: Long cardio piece with some strict pulling and some extra grip fatigue with the single arm devil press. Grip may become a factor quickly if we aren't breaking from the beginning to maintain our breathing and resting those forearms. Try not to get pulled out too early and save some gas for a push in the final round.
  • Run: About 4:00 of work.
  • Strict Pull-ups: :40 or less of work in 1-2 sets.
  • Single Arm Devil Press: 2:00 or less of work.
  • Score: Time to complete work.
Strategy
  • Athletes should aim to maintain a consistent running pace across all 5 rounds.
  • Since pull-ups should only be broken once to maintain consistent movement, breaking from the beginning may allow you to give a push at the end to finish strong.
  • Devil press should be a smooth and consistent set to allow for catching your breath before heading out on the next run.
