Bench Press (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)

Focus: Tempo-controlled descent and tight scapular setup.

Modifications:

- Adjust to Incline Bench Press, Floor Press, or Dumbbell Bench Press for movement limitations and impingement

- If any alternatives are needed beyond that, let's look to the landmine press for extra movement modifications for the shoulder.

Minute 2: 10 Deadlifts @ 60% 1RM

Score: Deadlift Load / Completion

Goal: Maintain consistent output across all rounds. Athletes should aim to complete each minute’s work with 10–15 seconds of rest remaining, demonstrating sustainable pacing and proper movement mechanics throughout.

Stimulus: Aerobic strength and muscular endurance

RPE: 7–8/10 — Hard but controlled effort. Athletes should feel challenged but never redline. The goal is repeatable effort, not max intensity.

For Load:

Level 1 / New Athletes:

Every 2:30 x 4 Sets

6/6 Reps @ 6-7 RPE (Relative Perceived Exertion)
