Warm Up

WARM UP VIDEO


Dumbbell Chainsaw Row

4x10-12/side

*Rest 60-90sec between sets.

COACH'S NOTES

Today's strength session is focused on building the lats, core and biceps.

-Take the time to feel the correct muscle groups being used.

Focus Points:

-Keep a flat back and use either your knee as leverage or another surface like a bench/box.

-Begin by pulling your shoulder blade down and back before pulling the weight towards your ribcage.

-Squeeze and hold it for 1-2sec at the top of the lift.

-When lowering the weight, avoid protracting the shoulder blade when the weight is in the bottom position.

-Maintain a flat back for the entire range of motion.

COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

Primer 2-3 Sets

4 Single Arm Sumo Deadlift High Pull (Or SUB)

10sec per side single arm overhead hold (Or SUB)

4 Weighted Box Step Ups (Or SUB)

*Gradually increase the loading and box height until you've established your working weight and heights.

Focus Points:

-Choose weights to be able to go unbroken for the majority of the workout.

-If you need to use a lighter weight on the overhead carry then do it.

-You will know if you start bending at the elbow and cannot completely lock out the arm.

-On the Sumo Deadlift High Pull, perform 7 reps on one arm and then switch 7 reps on the other.

-I also chose to switch which shoulder I had the weight on during the step ups (7/7) but you don't have to.

Goal:

-Aim for 2:30-3:30 per round

-This will put you below the 20 minute mark.

COACH'S NOTES

Today's accessory is focused on building the biceps, lats and core.

-Your arms don't have to be completely locked out.

-Use a weight on the sit ups and hold it across your chest (Bear hug style).

-If you can't complete the designated reps, go lighter or use no weight.
