Advanced athletes with solid olympic-lifting technique and strong gymnastics (pull-ups, handstand push-ups, toes-to-bar). It assumes competition-level capacity.
Yes, but scale skill not effort — sub gymnastics progressions and reduce load, keeping the intended stimulus of each session.
Aggressively: sleep, nutrition, mobility, and planned deloads. Re-test benchmark WODs to confirm you're progressing, not just accumulating fatigue.
This is a competition-level program. Warm up and build to working loads on every barbell lift, keep gymnastics technique crisp, and never chase a time at the expense of form under heavy load. Deload every 4th week and stop any set the instant technique fails.
