Burpee Simon Says

Positions:

Position 1: Standing tall (arms at sides).

Position 2: Top of a push-up (plank hold).

Position 3: Bottom of a push-up.

Position 4: Feet by hands or bottom of a squat.

Position 5: Jump to the sky (hands overhead, feet leaving the ground).

How It Works:

The coach calls out a position (e.g., "Simon Says 2"). Athletes must immediately move to the specified position.

If the coach does not say “Simon Says” and an athlete moves, they earn a penalty.

The coach can sequence positions as desired, creating patterns or random orders to challenge athletes. For example:

"Simon Says 2" → Athletes jump into a plank.

"Simon Says 3" → Athletes lower to the bottom of a push-up.

"Simon Says 4" → Athletes jump their feet to their hands.

Build Loads and Focus on Barbell Cycling and Technique (3-5 minutes)

Perform 3 sets of 3-5 thrusters, gradually increasing weight to the starting load to around the load we will be using on the 4th or 5th bars. The big focus here will be shifting the technique from more fast and cyclical thrusters to the heavier thrusters later on. The focus here will be on changing patterns to allow for a more concerted effort as the weights progress and become a little more grindy
