COACH'S NOTES
Deadlift Warm Up (VIDEO) (Exercise Library)
Activation/Primer
3 Sets
10 good mornings
5/5 Single Leg RDL
-This is week 4 of our strength cycle using "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:
-Deep inhale and create tension before lifting the weight.
-Quality setup for each rep.
-Keep the weight as close to the body on the way up as well as on the way down.
-Use a double overhand grip for as long as possible.

COACH'S NOTES
MOBILITY/ACTIVATION
3 Sets
Row 30sec (or SUB)
5 Dumbbell Hang Power Clean - Light weight and build (or SUB)
Focus Points:
-Pick a weight that isn't a walk in the park for you but also enables you to use your focus to complete all 10 reps each set.
-Today's workout is about pushing the pace within your means.
-Use your legs and hips on the cleans, otherwise you will exhaust your arms early on.
-How well can we flirt with that redline and still perform the designated work. You will figure out your pacing each round.
-For the 90sec of rest try your best to stay moving around walking. This will allow our heart rate to come back down before the next set.
-Use a timer that you can set the intervals for and set it like this:
5 total Sets of
3:00 Work
1:30 Rest
Keep track of each round and your score (Rounds and Reps).
Goal:
Aim for 2 rounds each set. If you're unable to reach 2 complete rounds, aim for consistency each set. Ex. Round 1 = 1 round + 7 reps / Round 2 should be within 5 reps of Round 1. So Round 2 should = 1 round + 2-10 reps.
