COACH'S NOTES
Primer/Activation
-Perform a few reps of each movement to help determine both exercise choice and loading.
Foucs Points:
-Make sure we start off with little to no weight on the turkish get up (especially if it's a new movement).
-Ensure you are going through all the steps to help perform the movement correctly and watch the video breakdown.
-Keep your hips square to the floor as best as possible during the pull throughs.
-A wider base with the feet will help achieve better positioning.
-On the box jumps I highly recommend stepping down from the box each rep.
-Choose a rep range that enables to you move at a consistent pace.
Goal:
-Choose both loadings and exercises that enable you to achieve the designated reps in under 45sec.
