Warm Up: Standard
Practice: Front Squat - 3 sets of 5 @ 65,75,85% of 1 rep max
If you dont have a 1RM front squat then smartly work up in weight until you get to a load that is somewhat difficult to achieve 5th rep. That will count as your first set and then go up a little for each of the next two sets.
Remember the bar should be basically resting on your anterior delts (front of shoulders) with just your finger tips underneath the bar. Keep those elbows high and pointed forward. Maintain your neutral spine (slight inward curve) throughout the movement. Force should be generated through your heels.
Train:
3 rounds for time
5 x 135# full cleans
10 Burpees
Full clean is from ground and catching in full squat, stand it up to complete the rep
Burpees are burpees
Time frame is 2-4 minutes so scale the weight up or down to finish in this time frame. Hard and fast.... just like we like it
Comments: practice weights and training time with any adjustments from RX
Post: stretch it out, foam roller if you can find one; tomorrow is a rest day!

Goodgame: P: 135#, 155#, 165# T: RX'd 4:26 I need to bring that intensity every day! Just a side note Cleans mixed with Burpees very evil, sadistic combination. I thought only Elizabeth could make me feel this way.
ReplyDeleteI still cant do cleans because of my damn hand. I did a workout in place of this one yesterday; 5 rounds: 15x55lb DB swings and 5 burpee broad jumps 5:15

Hudak: Pratice 185, 215, 240. Somehow I was delusional and thought my 1RM front squat was 285. What the hell was I thinking! That was stupid hard!
