Strict Presses (R+95/65, Rx 75/55)

After Each Set:

250m Run

15 AbMat Sit-ups

Today’s workout centers around our weightlifting movement: the strict press

After each round of descending rep strict press, you’ll complete some 250m and sit-ups

These other two movements utilize very little shoulders, which will allow us to maintain strong barbell sets

Your score is the total time it takes to complete the 10 rounds

We expect this workout to take between 20-25 minutes to complete.

A: Overhead Squat

Heavy Set of 3

Building to a heavy triple from the floor

We’ll have 13 minutes for this piece

Athletes who struggle with this challenging movement can keep the weights light to focus on technique. Athletes who move well and are comfortable can aim to build higher over this time frame

30 Pendlay Rows

30 Overhead Squats (R+115/75, Rx 95/65)

400m Run

The score here is the total time it takes to complete the listed work

Since we’re working through multiple parts, let’s cap this 18 min.

OVERHEAD SQUATS

Let’s choose a light-moderate weight that can be completed for 20+ unbroken reps when fresh

During the workout, we should be able to complete the set of 30 within 2-3 sets

The barbell will be taken from the ground for this part. You should squat snatch the first rep of each set if possible.

Row or Ski Calories

*stimulus is 12-15 with a 18min time cap

*We have two back-to-back couplets for today’s workout

This piece is fairly posterior chain dominant, which creates some interference between all 4 movements

This means we’ll have to find a good break-up plan to keep chipping away while pushing off excess fatigue

You’ll complete all the work of deadlifts and jumps before immediately transitioning to the swings and calories (no rest between)

The workout flows like this:

30 Deadlifts

30 Box Jumps

20 Deadlifts
