Stimulus

1) Build in weight as you decrease in reps and finish with a max unbroken set of hang power cleans at 50%

2) Break movements up early on and try to finish the 9-6-3 in large or unbroken sets. Each of the pull-up movements can be different if that is too much volume (ie ring rows + banded kipping) or you can remove one of the pull-up movements altogether if you are working on unassisted pull-ups. Select a weight of barbell based on your front squats and whether you can do them unbroken or not (or close to)
