Warm Up
Overhead Squat
5-4-3-3-3
Then perform a "Back Off" by taking off 20% of your final weight lifted and perform 6-8reps.
*Rest 2:00 between each set
COACH'S NOTES
Perform 10-15 Reps of an overhead squat with a PVC pipe
Activation/Primer
3 Sets
10 Pass Throughs
-If this movement is a challenge for you, lets keep it light using a PVC/broomstick and perform all sets with a higher rep scheme (all sets 8-10 reps for 6 sets total).
-Today we are beginning a new strength cycle which will include "Back Off" sets.
-A Back Off set is your final set in which you will take off some of the weight to perform a higher volume set.
Ex.
300lbs x 5
315lbs x 4
335lbs x 3
365lbs x 3
375lbs x 3
Then your back off set would be your final weight and subtract 20% for 6-8 reps. (20% of 375 = 75) so the "Back off" set would be (375-75= 300lbs).
Focus Points:
-Constant tension pressing into the bar while overhead.
-Maintain bar positioning as you descend in the squat.
-Depth will be determined by your ability to keep the bar in the same position overhead.

COACH'S NOTES
Mobility/Primer/Activation
3 Rounds
8 Single arm Dumbbell thruster (or SUB) 4/side
8 Weighted Box Step Ups (or SUB) 4/side
1-3 Strict Pull (or SUB)
Focus Points:
-Choose a weight that will allow continuous movement but not so easy that you get through the first 21 reps and it was easy.
-It should be something challenging but doable, so use your activation/primer sets to help decide this weight.
-If the weight is more comfortable to hold on the shoulder, go for it. You can also hold it by your side so do whatever is more comfortable.
-Strict pullups should be something you have to break during your set. With that being said, we don't want to resort to sets of 1 and 2 if possible. 5-7 reps is more ideal.
