Zone 4 AMRAPs are intended to be completed at a “reach” pace. Move through this workout at an intensity that feels challenging for the full time domain. Your pace should make this workout feel difficult but should not leave you feeling depleted by the end (hint: if you are laying on the floor and gasping for air after this, you missed the stimulus. Similarly, if you feel like you are able to hold a conversation during the workout, you missed the stimulus on the opposite end of the spectrum).If you are focused, you should be able to breathe in through your nose and out of your mouth for the majority of the time.
