Athlete Notes:
A little gymnastics mixed with a heavy barbell has something for everyone. This workout is purely ability based so you’re going to have to go with the strategy that best plays to your specific strengths and weaknesses. Some of you are great on your hands so we expect unbroken handstand push-ups. Some of you struggle on your hands but have great leg strength, so we expect you to go unbroken and push the pace on the squats but break the handstand push-ups. If these weights are too heavy, we’ll sub for 75, 85, and 90-95% of your 1 rep max clean. Make it something that you can get up and hit the squats but it’ll be tough to do all of them.

Optional Additional Work Sessions
