Back Squat (Take 15:00 minutes to Establish
Back Squat 5RM)

We are looking to start with sets of 2-3 reps at a time to give us a gauge of where we will be at to test the 5RM for the Day. The goal here would be to hit a 5 Rep Max at around 85-90%. We have been building our intensity here over the course of this cycle and should be ready and peaked to hit a strong and solid effort here.

Score = Rounds + Reps
Goal: ~4 Rounds

Primary Objective: Unbroken Goblet Step Ups

Secondary Objective: Consistent Shuttle Run Pace

Stimulus: Leg Stamina, Muscular Endurance, and Movement Efficiency in the Dumbbell Snatch

RPE: 8/10

The goal is to maintain steady movement without hitting a fatigue wall too early.

Primary Objective: Maintain unbroken and efficient movement across all stations to sustain a steady rhythm and minimize unnecessary breaks.

Secondary Objective: Limit transition times between movements to maximize total rounds. Any rest should be intentional and brief. If needed utilize the shuttle run as the time to recover a bit in order to keep the dumbbell movements unbroken.
