Intended Stimulus
This is a long ascending ladder designed to turn into a grind.
Early rounds feel quick and manageable. The workout becomes challenging once the rep volume climbs and the calorie machine begins to interrupt recovery.
The goal is sustainable pacing and smart set management from the very beginning.
How This Should Feel
First 5–7 minutes feel controlled
Middle portion becomes breathing and grip fatigue
Final minutes become a mental and pacing challenge
You should feel like you’re working the entire 20 minutes without long rest breaks.
Pacing Expectations
Toes to Bar should start in larger sets, then break early as reps climb
Kettlebell swings should stay unbroken for as long as possible
Machine effort should be steady and repeatable
If the early rounds feel like a sprint, the ladder will slow dramatically later.
Movement Notes
Toes to Bar
Break before failure
Keep sets repeatable
Kettlebell Swings
Use hips and breathe at the top
Stay efficient and relaxed
Machine
This is your breathing control — not a sprint
Big Picture
This workout trains:
Aerobic stamina
Grip and midline endurance
Long-duration pacing
Stay patient early so you can keep moving late.
