Stimulus: Midline stamina, strict pulling strength, gymnastic control, and sustainable conditioning
RPE: 7-7.5/10

Primary Objective: Complete all 20 minutes at 7/10 RPE
Secondary Objective: Maintain consistent quality on wall walks and strict pull-ups

Workout Notes and Strategy:
“Winterfell” demands consistency and composure. The strict pull-ups into toes-to-bar combo will tax grip and midline early, so focus on smooth reps and avoid going to failure. The shuttle run should be fast but sustainable — think 80-85% effort. Wall walks must be deliberate and technically sound, avoiding pushing these early as fatigue will build in the final 4 minutes. The ring plank becomes increasingly difficult as fatigue builds, so brace the midline and breathe into tension. Athletes who stay composed, move with intention, and avoid redlining will complete all rounds successfully.

Modifications:
- Strict Pull-Ups: Banded strict pull-ups, ring rows, or 6/6 alternating bent-over rows
- Toes-to-Bar: Toes to target, alternating Toes to Bar, Knee raises, leg raises, or strict knees-to-chest
- Run: Reduce shuttle runs, run outside, or choose a machine alternative for the day.
- Wall Walks: Partial walk-ins, pike walk-ins, or :10–:20 handstand hold
- Ring Plank: Floor plank, elevated plank, or hollow hold
