  • Strength:
    Four sets of:
    Front Squat x 3-5 reps
    Rest 10 seconds
    Tall Box Jumps x 1.1.1.1.1
    (rest 5-7 seconds between singles)
    Rest 3 minutes
  • WOD:
    For time:
    Row 1000 Meters / Run 1600
    immediately followed by:
    Three rounds of:
    15 Thrusters (50kg/35kg)
    30 Double-Unders

 

  • A:
    Every minute, on the minute, for 5 minutes:
    Front Squat
    *Set 1 – 2 reps @ 60%
    *Set 2 – 2 reps @ 65%
    *Set 3 – 2 reps @ 70%
    *Set 4 – 1 rep @ 75%

    For sets 6-10, let feel dictate loading. The goal is to establish today’s “heavy” lift. “Heavy” for the day is the load immediately before that at which you would lose proper mechanics and positioning. If you determine that you’ve reached that load for the day prior to set 10, stop there. You’ll have lots of opportunities over the upcoming weeks to hit new 1-RMs if and when your body is feeling good, so don’t push when your body isn’t responding to the stimulus.

  • B:
    Six sets of:
    Halting Clean Deadlift + Clean Pull + 2 Power Cleans + Jerk @ 70-85% of 1-RM Clean

    Followed by…
    Every 2 minutes, for 6 minutes (3 sets):
    Back Squat x 3 reps @ 75-80% of today’s heavy single
  • Optional Additional Conditioning Session(This session is best performed 3-4 hours prior to or following today’s primary session.)

    Eighteen sets of:
    30 seconds of Assault Bike @ 70-75/60-65 rpm
