Ben's Weekly Overview3 min

Hey team! Watch the video above to see what we’ve got coming up this week!

Strict Press15 min

3 Sets:
1 Strict Press

  • Same Weight Across
  • Aim For 89%
Stimulus
  • This is the fourth week of our base progression cycle. Athletes will aim to work up to 89%, and then complete all three sets at that load. If we feel that we are getting to the point of failure, drop down in weight to a load that you can complete all three sets of three.
  • Barbell should come from a rack.
  • Bar must be locked out over our centerline overhead and return back to tap the front of the shoulder in the bottom of our reps.
  • Same load used for all three sets.

-Score: Load used across the three sets.

"Hangry"18 min

15-12-9:
Hang Power Cleans
200 Meter Run
Push Jerks
200 Meter Run

Barbell: 155 / 105 lb

Time Cap: 18 Minutes

Stimulus
  • Overview: Today's workout is a mix of barbell cycling and running. The loading on the barbell should be moderate, meaning we will probably want to break the round of 15 into two sets with a quick rest between sets.
  • Target Score: 9:00-13:00
  • Stimulus: Moderate Loading
  • Runs: Should take about 1:00.
  • Hang Power Cleans: Should be completed in no more than 2 sets for any round. Aim to complete the set of 9 reps unbroken.
  • Push Jerks: Should be completed in no more than 2 sets for any round. Aim to complete the set of 9 reps unbroken.
  • Score: Time
Strategy
  • On the hang power cleans, athletes should try to be quick under the bar. The quicker our sets can be, the less time under tension we will spend.
  • Aim to catch the push jerks in a strong solid position. Elbows should beat the feet, meaning you catch the barbell locked out with stability before the feet land.
  • Try and run at as hard of a pace as you can that will still allow you to get to the barbell and complete your reps in 2 sets or less.
