Strength

Every 1:15 for 10 rounds:

  • 2 Slow Snatch Pulls + 1 Power Snatch from position 1

Strength Notes

Today’s strength is a snatch complex. The snatch pulls are to be performed slowly and deliberately from the ground through extension. This is meant to allow you to focus on your balance throughout and ensures you find positions 1>2>3 correctly. The power snatch is to be performed from position 1. Focus on lowering straight down, keeping the bar in your hip crease, then driving vertically. Start with a light weight and add a little bit of weight each round, building as heavy as technique allows.

Conditioning

5 Rounds

In 1:15, complete:

  • 2 Rope Climbs
  • 6 Box Jump Overs
  • Max Alternating Single Arm Dumbbell Clean and Jerks (50/70)

Rest 2:30

Conditioning Notes

Today’s workout consists of several time priority intervals. The rope climbs should take no longer than :20. You can adjust the number of reps, lower the target height, or switch to hanging knee raises. The box jump overs should be done quickly. Choose a box height where you won’t hesitate between reps. The dumbbell should be challenging but you should still be able to work continuously for :30 with the dumbbell you choose.

Strength

Front Squat

  • build to a heavy single with a :05 descent and :05 pause in the bottom

Strength Notes

Today’s strength is front squats. Your coach will take you through a thorough lower body warm up before beginning the squats. Warm up with the empty bar and be sure to practice the tempo here. As you build, make moderate jumps at lighter weights and smaller jumps once you start to get to heavier weights. Be sure each negative is performed with a consistent tempo of :05 and after the :05 pause in the bottom stand up without any extra bounce.

Conditioning

With a partner, alternating full rounds, complete 5 rounds each:

  • 5 Squat Cleans (you choose the weight)
  • 200m Run

Conditioning Notes

Today’s workout is a task priority to be performed with a partner. The squat cleans should be at a challenging weight, but one where you can complete a rep every :05-:06. The runs should take no longer than 1:00. Adjust the distance in order to accomplish this. All ten rounds should be completed in 15:00 or less.

Strength

Bench Press

  • build to a heavy single with a pause on the chest

Strength Notes

Today’s strength work is bench press. Your coach will take you through a good shoulder and wrist warm up before you start benching. Once you start benching, perform at least 5 reps with the empty bar and very light weights to warm up. Make small jumps and once the weights become moderate, stick with just one rep at a time. We recommend at least 2:00 rest between heavier sets. Every rep will be performed with a pause on the chest. Always use a spotter.

Conditioning

In 12:00:

  • 50/40 Calorie

then with the remaining time complete as many reps as possible:

  • 3 Shoulder to Overhead (115/75)
  • 3 Pull Ups
  • 30 Double Unders
  • 6 Shoulder to Overhead
  • 6 Pull Ups
  • 30 Double Unders
  • 9 Shoulder to Overhead
  • 9 Pull Ups
  • 30 Double Unders
  • …continue adding 3 reps to the shoulder to overhead and pull ups

Conditioning Notes

Today’s workout is a time priority with a calorie buy in. The calories should take no more than 4:00 to complete. Adjust the number if necessary. Choose a weight on the barbell that allows you to complete at least 12 reps unbroken. The technique we recommend is a quick push jerk. The pull ups should be done quickly. Don’t allow these to go to singles. If that pull up volume is too high, adjust the reps to 2-4-6-8…, or switch to jumping pull ups. The double unders should be done unbroken every time. Either adjust the number of reps or perform single unders to accomplish this.
