MANAGEMENT/FOCUS:

  • Getting barbells out for the second part of this will speed up the transition into the Specific Warm-up

  • Good lower body warm-up followed by some movements to prime the body for the Deadlift sets

Specific Warm-up

Round 1: 5 Deadlift @40% + 20 Flutter Kicks

Round 2: 4 Deadlift @50% + 20 Flutter Kicks

Round 3: 3 Deadlift @60% + 20 Flutter Kicks

MANAGEMENT:

  • Recommend doing a warm-up set every 2:00

  • Great time to coach them more specifically on their technique for Deadlift

Strength

Deadlift 5x5 @75%

FOCUS:

  • We have utilized some complexes and tempo to increase time under tension and higher rep sets to continue working on Strength Endurance, now we decrease the reps a bit and increase weight

  • Chest up, hips below shoulders and above knees, brace, neutral spine, when you get to the knee think about flexing your butt to get to full hip extension

WORK/REST RATIO:

  • Every 2:30 for 12:30…last set would be at the 10:00 mark

Accessory Work

3 sets of each

Cluster #1: 20yd KB Front Rack Walk + 10 KB Goblet Squats + 20yd KB Front Rack Walk + 10 KB Goblet Squats

Cluster #2: 6 Double KB RDLs + 6 Double KB Lunges (3 each leg)

FOCUS:

  • We will utilize Complexes, Clusters, Supersets and Giant sets in this cycle…all are “fun” in their own way 😁

  • Clusters combine 2 or more movements of the same body part to build muscle size and endurance by increasing time under tension

  • Cluster #1: use the same KB for both movements…walk 20yds with the KB in the Front Rack, complete the Goblet Squats, then back 20yds with the KB in the Front Rack, then complete the Goblet Squats…distance/reps increased, try to keep the same weight you ended with last week

  • Cluster #2: use the same KBs for both movements…slight bend in the knee, push your hips back to get a good stretch in the hamstrings, flex your butt at the top, go right into the Lunges, focus on driving through your front heel…grip strength will be tested as well…reps decreased, try to increase weight

WORK/REST RATIO:

  • Every 2 minutes for 6 minutes complete a set of Cluster #1, after completing all sets then take 2-3 minutes rest, then go again every 2 minutes for 6 minutes to complete the sets of Cluster #2

  • Technically DBs can be used if you need to share equipment or are low on KB inventory
