Primary Strength Session
A.
Every minute, on the minute, for 6 minutes:
Dead-Stop Front Squat x 1 rep @ 95% of your 1-RM Dead-Stop Front Squat
B.
Every 2 minutes, for 16 minutes (8 sets):
Clean from Mid-Patella x 1 rep
(pause 2 seconds at mid-patella, then snatch)
Build from approximately 70-75% to today’s heavy. Same rules as last week, but with reduced pause length, the expectation is that you will build to a heavier load.
C.
Three sets of:
8-Second Clean Deadlift x 1 rep @ 8181
Rest as needed
Start with approximately 65% or lighter and keep your focus on maintaining proper positions and weight distribution. Use the 8-second ascent to feel the weight shift from the forefoot into the mid-foot as the barbell passes the knee; keep your chest over the barbell and stay patient in that position as the barbell ascends up the thighs; feel you hips coming up and under the barbell to elevate it – not kick it out. One the way down, maintain that same controlled 8-second tempo and hit all positions again in reverse. Use straps for this!

Conditioning

PRd my muscle ups on the set of 12! Then rested way too long after each set of snatches. Also I noticed when I think of cycling the bar or going faster I cut my pull WAY short every time so I will work on that next time.
B. Land mine rows with men’s bar
C. OH yoke carry with yoke + 20#
Nice work on those muscle-ups Casey! Solid session and some good learning on those snatches.
Dead stop- 230 no misses!
Pause cleans- 165 up to 215! Very close miss at 220! Next week ?
Conditioning done- 15:40 RX. I know this isn’t the fastest but my body is wreck and I’m totally surprised I moved decently well through this with the way I feel. Just stayed steady and moved. Focused on good quality reps.
Assault bike work done after about 20 minutes of rest form above work. 30 cals every set.
Rest up eat well and get ready to hit Friday hard. No additional work tomorrow!!!
For sure! All the food. All the mobility!
Took yesterday off after 4 days of Masters Qualifiers this weekend, got back to the gym today to move a little bit. Was going to do the snatch/ MU workout, but body (and probably my mind) weren’t quite ready to hit it hard! Did the Assault Bike intervals and landmine rows. Maybe lift later today. I’ll be ready to get back to it on Friday for sure!
Sitting in 21st right now…. so close…. lol. Lemme just ride that bubble ?
Wow, so awesome! Nice work Beth!
Thank you Connor!

Primary Strength Session A. Every minute, on the minute, for 6 minutes: Dead-Stop Front Squat x 1 rep @ 95% of your 1-RM Dead-Stop Front Squat all done at 200. Pretty happy about that. B.

Working on it… C. Three sets of: 8-Second Clean Deadlift… Read more »
