COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

-Perform a few reps of each movement to help determine both loading and exercise choice.

-We want to choose options that we can go unbroken on our sets with quality form.

Workout Flow:

-Today we have 3 total rounds. A round will consist of two 3 minute AMRAPS. Each AMRAP is seperated by 1:00 of rest.

-All the reps in today's workout are 10 (Russian Twists are 10/side = 20 total).

-Keep track of how many rounds and reps you perform in each AMRAP so you can create some consistency round to round.

Focus Points:

-Move with a sense of urgency but be under control.

-Yes we want to move fast and efficiently but not at the sacrifice of form.

-Have a SUB in mind or a lighter weight so you can make a quick transition if needed during the 3 minute intervals.

Goal:

Aim for 3 Rounds each interval. Use SUBS to be able to achieve close to this.

COACH'S NOTES

FOCUS:

-Todays accessory is focused on a well rounded arm workout.

-We are targeting the biceps, triceps and shoulders.

-Pick a weight you can control and really focus on the muscles being used in each exercise.

Barbell Curls

-Position your hands just outside of your thighs with palms facing forward.

-While bracing the core and squeezing the glutes, hinge at the elbows curling the bar up towards the shoulders.

-Slowly lower the bar under control and perform the next rep before your elbows reach full extension to help maintain tension.

Dumbbell Lateral Raise + Front Raise

-Begin with a set of dumbbells at your side.

-Raise the dumbbells from at your sides up to shoulder height and control the lower back down.

-Then position the dumbbells in front of the thighs and raise the dumbbells but this time out in front of your body. Raise them until your arms are parallel with the floor.

-This cycle completes 1 full repetition.

Dumbbell Tricep Overhead Extension

-Hold a dumbbell overhead in a vertical fashion.

-Begin with arms extended and the weight over your head.

-Slowly lower the weight down towards your shoulder blades and then extend back up overhead to complete the rep.
