Lazar Strategy Guide
Master the Lazar Hero WOD with detailed pacing strategies, movement tips, and scaling options.
Strategy Overview
This is a high-skill, high-volume workout. The key is to manage the rest periods effectively and maintain good form on the gymnastics movements.
Pacing Strategy
Use the rest periods to fully recover for the next block.
The first two blocks are sprints, the last block is about muscular endurance.
Pace the row to be able to go straight to the gymnastics movements.
Movement-Specific Tips
Bar muscle-ups: Break into small sets if needed to avoid failure.
Strict handstand push-ups: These will be very taxing. Maintain a good kip and rhythm.
Rowing: Find a pace that is challenging but allows for quick recovery.
Scaling Options
Remember: Scaling is Smart
The goal is to maintain the intended stimulus of the workout. Scale appropriately to challenge yourself while maintaining good form and the workout's character.
Reduce calories on the row.
Scale bar muscle-ups to chest-to-bar pull-ups or regular pull-ups.
Scale strict handstand push-ups to pike push-ups or regular push-ups.
Additional Success Tips
Warm up your shoulders and wrists thoroughly.
Have a plan for breaking up the gymnastics movements.
