A classic CrossFit benchmark involving a medium-weight barbell pull paired with a high-stability bodyweight pushing movement. Each round can be broken up into three sets, but should you break them up that way? These are meant to be done in fast, pushing the intensity as far as you can, as quickly as you can.

READ: Parallette Training – The CrossFit Journal.

Parallettes are easy to make and can be a large part of your bodyweight control training. You can also use dumbbell handles in a pinch, but the taller heights and better stability allow for more variance with the proper tools. We just made four more pairs in addition to what we already had for member equipment take-out!
