Hi guys

I've been through the workout plan explanation video & the full body workout program document but I'm a little confused as to what failing a level actually means, i found a few forum posts asking what to do when failing a level (go back a few levels):

but nothing saying what constitutes failing a level, i understand that it means you cant do the min sets/reps but what happens if you can do the required sets/reps for all the exercises of a level except for maybe 1 exercise? does that mean you fail a level or is a failure only when you cant complete all the min required sets/reps of a level?

Thanks!

I didn't really understand you but I think I know what your going with. You fail a level when you are unable to complete the minimum sets and reps of that level. Hope I helped!

Hi Daniel

no that doesn't really help, let me use an example :)

lets say you are on level 5 and your workout goes like this:

pull:
wide pull ups: 3 sets with 4 reps
wide Australian pull ups: 4 sets with 10 reps + max set

push:
dips: 4 sets with 10 reps
shoulder up downs: 4 sets with 7 reps
handstand hold: 4 sets with 20 sec holds

so far things are going well but then you get to the leg section of the workout and you can only do 3 sets of burpees with the required reps. When you try the 4th set you just cant get the required reps so you move on and manage to do the min reps/sets for calve raises and the ab exercises. Does this mean i failed the workout or is failing the workout only when you cant do the min sets/reps for all the exercises for the level?
