Shorten the Range of Motion on the GHD

Goal: 1:45-2:15/ Set

Stimulus: Midline / Muscular Endurance
RPE: 7/10

Primary Objective: Consistent pacing on Devils Press and Shuttle Runs
Secondary Objective: Maintain RPE Guidance and quality sets on Toes to Bar

Workout Strategy:
Look to tackle this with consistency and technical efficiency. We will look to have the GHD Sit-Ups unbroken, into technical and proficient Single Arm Devils Press. A note that we are meant to do these as 5 per arm as either 5 on 1-arm and then 5 on the other or looking to alternate arms for all 10 reps. We will then move to the shuttle runs where we will tackle clean efficient reps at around that 75% effort working on efficiency in the turn and touch to keep the heart rate mellow on this one and avoid unnecessary spikes.

Modifications / Adjustments:
- GHD Sit-Ups: Adjust range of motion / Move to V-Ups or Tuck-Ups / Or adjust to weighted abmat sit-ups or traditional abmat sit-ups
- Single Arm Devils Press: Adjust loads or reps, and / or a mixture of both / Move to Burpees + Dumbbell Snatch
- Shuttle Runs: Reduce the amount of shuttle runs or move to 150m Run outside if space doesn't align.
