STIMULUS
- Overview: This is the third week of our 8-week Base Camp strength cycle, where we'll make steady, methodical progress, preparing to peak for new one-rep maxes in August. With two cycle blocks over eight weeks, we’ll build a solid strength foundation by first progressing the classic powerlifts (squat, bench, and deadlift) in June, then transitioning to alternate powerlifts (front squat, strict press, and sumo deadlift) in July to round out full-body strength.

- June's Strength & Hypertrophy Block: We’ll progress the classic powerlifts (squat, bench, deadlift), increasing from reps at 75% to reps at 85% over the first three weeks, followed by a deload in Week 4. After the third set each week, we’ll perform a drop set at 50% to challenge muscular endurance and trigger a growth hormone response. For the drop set, you have one attempt to accumulate as many continuous reps (continuous movement with no pauses) as you can. Once you have to pause, your drop set is over.

- Shoulders must end behind the barbell at the top of every rep. These reps should be completed touch-and-go with no stopping at the floor to rest, rebrace, or regrip.

- Fitness Attribute Improved: Explosive Power
STRATEGY
Deadlift Coaching Cues:
- Push through the floor like you’re doing a leg press.

- Squeeze your armpits shut and drag the bar up your legs.

STIMULUS
- Overview: With twice the amount of rest as work, look to move very quickly and aggressively during your work intervals.

STRATEGY
- This workout is an anaerobic capacity workout, so we should work hard at the beginning of each work interval.
