Warm Up
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.
