If suitable weight is not available, get creative and make what you have work. Dumbbells, multiple kettlebells in each hand, the rope attached to kettlebells, weight vest, deficit set-up, 5/1000 pause at the top of each rep, 10 extra steps Farmer carry at the top of each lift…
Scaled to ability = Each rep/ set/ movement poses a significant challenge for each athlete’s individual skill level; Put in what you expect to get out.
Then:
If/ when rest is needed, keep it short and specific (3-5 breaths/:15 sec.). No lazy reps. Weight for lunge may be carried in any organized manner you choose with the exception of a barbell in the back rack. Scale method of carrying and implement to skill level at the designated weight.
Advanced pull-up suggestions include Weighted, L-pull-up, chest-to-bar, negative. No kip, no butterfly.
And then, “Time under tension”:
Today, dumbbell or kettlebell is held directly over chest. Work to “True” failure (loss of physical positioning) not “Relative” failure (loss of mental endurance). If time reaches two minutes, you may stop if desired. If time is under two minutes, do it again, and accumulate at least two total minutes.
