BIG thank you to Amy for coaching this morning!! :) I'll be back Wednesday - lift some heavy stuff while I'm gone!

A)  5RM hang clean - stay connected! For some of you this will be a grip strengthening exercise as much as a hang clean strength exercise. And that's okay!

B)  Back squat - 5RM, then 2x5@90%

C)  Accumulate 50 V-ups, 50 GHD back extensions (or Supermans with 3-sec hold), and 50 Russian twists (R+L=1). Divide up as necessary to accommodate having just 2 GHD machines!

It's the start of a new cycle! Get pumped! Like we discussed Saturday, this is a strength by feel cycle. All of the 5RMs, 3RMs, etc that we do are intended to be technical rep maxes. Meaning if you press out on a snatch or jerk, it doesn't count. Keep yourself honest on these guys and I think we will see a lot of technical progress. Try not to get caught up in the numbers this time around! I want to see some good lookin' lifts. A) 20min to find Power snatch - 5RM B) Front squat - 5RM. Then 2x5@90% of today's 5RM C) 4 rounds, unbroken sets, minimal rest 12 T-tilts (L+R=1) (45/33) 12 kb swings (55/35, American) 12 push-ups
