Wide Grip Pullups
Training Intent
Superset of close grip bench press/wide-grip pull-ups. Make sure your athletes don’t “flare” their elbows on the bench press. There are multiple options that are commensurate with each athletes ability. Wide grip focuses on developing lats/shoulders. Make sure athletes aren’t compensating by “leaning back” to complete their reps.

Training Intent
I would not call this workout an “all-out sprint” since the T2B will likely slow athletes down, but KBS/OHS should be completed UB. Most times will range between 7-10:00. Managing grip fatigue is key, so breaking up T2B early is important.
