Back Squat

Tempo 4x3 @42x1 (Week 4 of 5 Tempo Strength Cycle)

*Rest 60-90sec between sets.

COACH'S NOTES

Primer:

5 Fire hydrants forward and back each leg

5 Bootstrappers

10 Empty Barbell Back Squats

-Then gradually build to a starting weight.

Focus Points:

-Lets aim to lift heavier than the previous week.

-Measure your hand placement to ensure grip is equal on both sides.

-After placing the bar on the traps, take 1-2 steps back and establish your squat stance.

-Take a deep inhale and brace before descending in the squat.

-Keep your eyes fixed on a focal point straight in front of you.

-Torso should remain fairly vertical and your knees should track in line with your toes.

-Reset your breath at the top of each rep.

TEMPO = @42x1

-The first number (4) signifies how many seconds we lower the weight in the squat.

-The second number (2) signifies how many seconds we hold the weight in the bottom of the squat.

-The third number/letter (x) simply means stand at normal speed.

-The fourth number (1) signifies how many seconds we hold the weight while standing before perfomring the next rep. .

COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

-Perform a few reps and establish a burpee target for your hands to jump and touch.

-The purpose for this is to hold ourselves accountable to reaching full ankle knee and hip extension.

Workout Flow:

-At the start of the workout, both athletes may choose to break up the 60 Ring Rows however they choose.

-While P1 is performing the ring rows, P2 must be holding a plank (Any Variation)

-Continue until you've reached 60 reps in total then move to the Burpees in the same fashion.

-Both of you will then perform the 400m Odd Object carry while each holding your own odd/heavy object.

-When you return, continue the rest of the workout in the same fashion you did on the first half of the workout.

SOLO VERSION:

30 Ring Rows (Feet Elevated)

30 Burpees (To 6" target above reach)

400m Odd Object Carry

30 Burpees

30 Ring Rows (Feet Elevated)

Focus Points:

-Figure out rep schemes that will work for the both of you.

-Sometimes you may need to break due to your partner struggling holding the plank.

-Communication is key and come up with your own unique strategy.

Goal:

-Finish in Under 22 Minutes.

COACH'S NOTES

Today we are focused on building the legs.

You will also see some lat focus in here as well.

Perform the RDL's for 4 sets by themselves with rest between.

The Lat Pull Downs and the calf raises will be in a superset format meaning back and forth.

Once youve completed both exercises then you will rest.

Our main exercises are targeting the glutes, hamstrings, calves and lats.

Work with a weight that will anable you to have perfect form.

Take your time with each movement.
