Strength 20-25 minutes to hit a 6x5 Deadlift @ 32X1, rest 3-5 minutes between sets ***score deadlift weight. B. Muscle Endurance At the top of the minute for 12 minutes Minute 1: 30 seconds of plyometric push ups @ 45# Minute 2: 30 seconds of Toes To Bar ***score total repetitions [Notes:] A. you have some heavy 6’s to go off of from the week before last – use those numbers to dial it in. Do the math and understand that if you want to get your sets in, and get appropriate rest, you’ll have to start your first set around the 9 minute mark, work up with some fast sets to your working weight. Thats if you have that prior number to go off of, if you didn’t do the heavy 6’s, just work up within the four sets to find your heavy 5’s – I’d prefer these are all heavy sets though, lets say your 1st set should be within 10% of your heaviest last set if you climb. B. For this one, I’d like you to accumulate volume, so if the reps are broken within that 30s mark, thats fine, as long as you are giving it a solid effort. The continuum for push ups is: elevated push ups --> push ups on floor --> plyometric push ups at varying levels of height Break up the TTB however you'd like to in the 30s[/x_accordion_item][x_accordion_item title="Tuesday 8.23.16" open="false"]Tuesday 8.23.16 A. 3 Rounds Bulgarian Split Squat x 8 each leg @ 60X1, rest 20-30s between legs Bent Over Barbell Row x 8 @ 60X1 rest appropriately in between exercises ***score your weights for the BSS and Bent Row B.

Alactic Power/Endurance 5 Rounds @ the top of a 3 minute mark One Full Length Plate Push @ 95% Effort (45#) try to keep walking between rounds ***Score – no score, just get after it [Notes:] A. You have some prior numbers for this the week before last as well, the tempo has changed a little – so it may be a little more difficult. Keep that in mind. B. This is just one aggressive ass plate push the full length of the turf - we will have it marked out so we can have a little room for setup on each side of the turf. just get into a line and @ the top of the 3 minute mark, you'll haul ass across to one person, who can then push it back. This shouldn't feel like complete death, you should be able to get up and wobble right into a walk to recovery a bit, I shouldn't see your output drop a huge amount either.[/x_accordion_item][x_accordion_item title="Wednesday 8.24.16" open="false"]Wednesday 8.24.16 A. Conditioning – Lactic Power 5 Rounds 60s to perform 10 Unbroken Fast Push Presses Row max meters in remaining time walk 5 minutes between rounds ***score push press weight and total meters rowed for each round, should look like this 135#/255, 135#/265, etc B. Optional Cool Down 5-10 Amrap Cool Down 4-6 Moose Antlers 30 Singles 4-6 Childs Pose 30 Second Goblet Squat ***Don't score, its a cool down [Notes:] A. I have a particular setup in mind for this one so that it flows well and you get the correct response, what response you might ask? Think of it this way…I want you to work hard enough in the 60s so that you feel as though you need that 5 minutes of walking to recover before giving it another good effort. Think of a lot of work in a short amount of time, aggression, explosive. This will have more of that “brain fog” after the rounds associated with it on account of the CNS effect of it. This is now gear 4 out of 5 and you are pushing at a high RPM instead of a steady RPM. B. The aerobic is shifting back a little on account of the volume increasing on these lactic power days – the rounds and time are going up for the Lactic Power, so the effort and movement selection is pulling back to something that resembles recovery work a bit more, just breath and move smooth through the light aerobic work. This is definitely sustainable, gear 1 of 5, zone 1, however you want to look at it. Hit quality movement inchworms – work on your breathing.[/x_accordion_item][x_accordion_item title="Thursday 8.25.16" open="false"]Thursday 8.25.16 A. 15-20 minutes to find Back Squat 6.4.2 @ 52X1 between your working sets, accumulate 3x10 supinated banded pull aparts with a 2 second pause at the back end ***Score is weight for 6.4.2. BS B. 10 minute amrap 2 Heavy As Possible Turkish Get Ups Max Unbroken Kipping Pull Ups ***Score is total number of pull ups and TGU weight [Notes:] A. The tempo has been lengthened for the squats, use your numbers from a couple weeks back as a guideline. Make sure you pack the shoulder for that 2 count on the banded pull apart. B. Pull Ups can be kipping, chest to bar if you want, these are now unbroken sets, once you drop - you are done–  Coaches choice on the scaling for the individual. If you are a C2B stud, why not work on UB muscle ups?

Every minute on the minute for 8 minutes 2-3 Power Cleans @ 70-80% of today’s 2rm [Notes:] A. stick to the tempo, you’ll notice the rep scheme has dropped from last week, which should allow you to hit a heavier load. B. Treat these Power Cleans like 2 separate heavy singles, once you drop, reset, big breath, hit the next one. C. This is a little heavier this time than last PC, seeing as how its a 2rm now and a higher %. I have a range of weights you can perform on this one of 2-3 if you are feeling good or bad about it.
