Overhead Squat (Week 3)

5-4-3-2-2

Then perform a "Back Off" by taking off 20% of your final weight lifted and

perform 6-8reps.

*Rest 2:00 between each set

COACH'S NOTES

Perform 10-15 Reps of an overhead squat with a PVC pipe

Activation/Primer

3 Sets

10 Pass Throughs

*If this movement is a challenge for you, lets keep it light using a PVC/broomstick and perform all sets with a higher rep scheme (all sets 8-10 reps for 6 sets total).

"Back Off" sets.

-A Back Off set is your final set in which you will take off some of the weight to perform a higher volume set.

Ex.

300lbs x 5

315lbs x 4

335lbs x 3

365lbs x 3

375lbs x 3

  • Then your back off set would be your final weight subtraction 20% for 6-8 reps. (20% of 375 = 75) so Back off set would be (375-75= 300lbs).

Focus Points:

-Constant tension pressing into the bar while overhead.

-Maintain bar positioning as you descend in the squat.

-Depth will be determined by your ability to keep the bar in the same position overhead.
