-

Then Working Loads on the Bar

Front Squat (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)

All percentages based on 5x5 Front Squat Test. The structure here is a volume and muscular endurance session that builds to a genuinely heavy effort by the final set. The early sets should feel controlled and deliberate, with athletes reinforcing front rack integrity and depth on every rep. Sets four and five start to demand real effort. The set of 3 should feel close to a true 3RM; athletes should arrive at it having earned it through quality work, not rushed loading. I t’s generally around 75–80% of your 1RM .

Modifications:

Level 1: Work to a challenging but technically sound load across all six sets, reducing percentage targets if needed to maintain a high elbow position and consistent depth; goblet squat or dual dumbbell front squat are appropriate substitutions if barbell front rack positioning is a limiting factor.

Hotel Gym / Travel: Dual dumbbell front squat or goblet squat, building across six sets to the heaviest load that maintains an upright torso and full depth throughout.

Primer (No Measure)

Barbells come out to the floor with a warm-up weight on the bar.

"Juggernaut" (AMRAP - Rounds and Reps)

For Rounds + Reps:

2 Squat Cleans

4 Deadlifts

24 Double Unders (A: 36 singles)

Barbell: (Rx 185/125, S 155/105)
Goals: 8 Rounds

Stimulus: Barbell Cycling

RPE: 8.5/10

Primary Objective: Quality technique throughout, efficiently breaking the bar off the floor on both the squat cleans and deadlifts while maintaining a strong receiving position across all rounds.

Secondary Objective: Stay consistent on pacing across all 8 minutes; the short time domain compounds quickly and a steady rhythm from round one through the finish is the goal.

10 Plank Shoulder Tapbs

10 Scapular Pull-Ups

10/10 Quadruped Thoracic Rotations

8 Empty Barbell Strict Press

5 Strict Press

3-5 Strict Pull-Ups (add load progressively)

Strength: Strict Press + Weighted Strict Pull-Ups (10 Rounds for weight)

10:00 EMOM

Minute 1: 8 Strict Press @ 100-105% of 3x10 test

Minute 2: 3-5 Weighted Strict Pull-Ups
Strict Press working at 100-105% of 3x10 test set load. Weighted strict pull-ups at a heavy load athletes can complete unbroken for 3-5 reps across all five sets; full dead hang at the bottom, chin over bar at the top, no kipping.

*For athletes who cannot meet the 3-5 pull-up standard, use unloaded strict pull-ups, add appropriate band tension, or sub 3-5 jumping pull-ups with a controlled :02-:03 eccentric on the descent.

Modifications:

Level 1: Strict Press @ 6/10 RPE across or adjust to Dumbbell Strict Press to maintain quality positions; substitute jumping pull-ups with a slow eccentric or use band-assisted strict pull-ups matched to a load that allows 3-5 unbroken reps.

Hotel Gym / Travel: Dumbbell strict press for the pressing minute and hold a dumbbell between the legs for strict pull-ups in the gym. If no pull-up bar available, sub heavy bent over dumbbell rows or Renegade Rows.

Snatch

Snatch (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)

All percentages based on 1RM Snatch. Athletes drop and reset between every rep; this is not touch-and-go. The priority is a strong, consistent pulling position and a committed catch on every single rep. The first two sets at 60-65% are skill work as much as they are warm-up sets; do not rush through them. Build with intention and arrive at the final two sets knowing the position is locked in.

Modifications:

Level 1: Every 2:00 x 6 Sets, 3 Hang Power Snatch + 3 Overhead Squats, working at moderate loads and refining technique across all six sets.

Hotel Gym / Travel: Dumbbell power snatch, 4 reps per arm, building across six sets to a challenging but controlled load that maintains a strong catch and vertical pull.

Drop loads significantly from the weightlifting block before beginning.
