Then Get into Strength Piece

Strength: Barbell Front Rack Step-Up (4 Rounds for weight)

4 Sets:

5/5 Barbell Front Rack Step-Ups

Load: Choice

Suggested Loading: 95-115lb (43-52kg) / 65-75lb (30-34kg)
The focus of this piece is single-leg drive with an upright front rack position on every rep. Athletes should establish elbow height and midline tension before stepping up, drive fully through the front heel to stand, and control the descent before the next rep begins. Load selection should reflect a weight that is challenging for the positional demands without compromising the front rack or creating a forward lean through the rep.

Modifications:

Level 1: Goblet Step-Ups with a dumbbell or kettlebell at a manageable load, maintaining the same upright torso and full single-leg drive standard

Hotel Gym / Travel: 4 Sets of 5/5 Dual Dumbbell Front Rack Step-Ups or Single Dumbbell Goblet Step-Ups using a chair, bench, or sturdy elevated surface at a challenging but technically sound load

Primer (Checkmark)

24 Air Squats

16 Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift High Pull

8 Shuttle Runs

Shuttle Run: 25/25ft (7.5/7.5m)

Kettlebell: (Rx53/35, S 44/26)
Score = Total Reps Across All 3 Sets

Goals: 1+ Rounds per set (50+ Reps per set)

Stimulus: Posterior Chain and Leg Stamina

RPE: 8/10

Primary Objective: Match or exceed your rep count from set one across all three intervals, establishing a controlled pace from the first rep and sustaining it through each 4:00 window.

Secondary Objective: Keep all movements unbroken within each round, using the transition between movements rather than rest mid-set to manage effort.

The dream is free. The hustle is sold separately.
