“Echoes of Earth” is a high-intensity barbell cycling and sprint conditioning workout that demands burpee explosiveness, technical barbell proficiency, and grip/shoulder stamina. Each set is a sprint with heavy lifting under fatigue, followed by structured rest. The goal is to hit consistent set times without major fall-off, managing both heart rate and barbell mechanics under pressure.

Goal: 4:00–5:30 per set

Stimulus : Sprint intensity, barbell stamina, technical under fatigue

RPE : 8.5–9/10

Focus : Smooth, fast burpees; precise, strong power snatches; smart breathing and barbell control

Key focus areas:

Push the pace on burpees without completely spiking heart rate

Hit efficient, strong power snatch reps—no missed lifts, no major form breakdown.

Manage breathing between barbell sets for consistency
