Primary Strength Session

online pharmacy prograf no prescription pharmacy

A.
Build to today’s 3-RM Pause Low Bar Back Squat @ 33X1

Perform these barefoot, and with a wide stance. Sit back to create tension through your posterior chain and adductors, and stay on tension for a 3 second pause before standing it up.

B.
Every 3 minutes, for 6 minutes (2 sets):
Stiff-Legged Deadlift to 2″ Deficit x 12 reps @ 20X1

These should be light and controlled – keep working on internal torque to activate the hamstrings. Stand on a 2″ platform (plates can work), and allow only a soft bend in your knees. If you lack the required mobility to do this drill, remove the deficit, or even elevate the weight, but the idea is to start the pull closer to the end range of your hamstring mobility. Grip the platform with your toes and think about creating some internal torque as you separate the barbell from the floor. Please keep a double-overhand grip for these, and use straps if your grip is your limiter.

C.
Three sets of:
Landmine Row x 8 reps @ 2111
Rest 30-45 seconds
Reverse Hypers x 20 reps @ 1010
Rest as needed

Primary Conditioning Session
Every minute, on the minute, for 21 minutes (7 sets of each):
Minute 1 – 10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups + 4 Burpee Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)
Minute 2 – 8 Thrusters (115/75 lbs) + 4 Burpee Box Jump-Overs
Minute 3 – 6 Strict Handstand Push-Ups + 4 Burpee Box Jump-Overs

Immediately followed by…

Three rounds for time of:
10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
8 Thrusters (115/75 lbs)
6 Strict Handstand Push-Ups
12 Burpee Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)

Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.

All UB. First set of 12 was a little slow but I actually had negative splits on the for time portion. Solid bell curve of a workout. Super humid here in Mpls. A good, hot, sweaty mess! ?

Did not feel good on muscle ups yesterday, but felt nothing and the chest to bars today. I’d say it is progress
