3 rounds of

  • 6 x Weighted Pullup @ 10kg
  • Rest 1 minute
  • 8 x Weighted Dips @ 10kg
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then immediately following the last rest do one round of

  • 6 x Strict Pullups
  • Rest 1 min
  • 8 x Dips

Then 5 rounds of 30 second work, 30 second rest (25 minutes total)

  • TRX Pike Press
  • TRX Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat Left
  • TRX Pushup
  • TRX RFE Split Squat Right
  • TRX Tricep Extensions

Keep the TRX Straps at the same length throughout.

Results: I didn’t count the TRX stuff so just do it as best as possible. I kept the handles of the TRX at around knee high. For the split squats, I put my foot through both loops otherwise the strap dropped too low. Heavy TRICEP workout.
