For total number of Pullups / Dips, do 3 rounds of:

  • 3 x Weighted Pullups @ 15kg
  • Rest 30 Seconds
  • Max Reps Pullups

  • 3 x Weighted Dips @ 25kg

Then EMOM for 5 minutes do:

You can either do full cleans or hanging as shown in the video.  With the full it was more comfortable to keep the weights between the legs instead of outside since the weights are so low.

Then do 8 rounds of 15 second work / 45 second rest of L-Sits.

Results:  For the first part, 20 Pullups / 25 Dips (not counting the weighted reps).
