Warm Up
Overhead Squat (Week 2)
5-4-3-3-2
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 subtraction 20% for 6-8 reps. (20% of 375 = 75) so Back off set would be (375-75= 300lbs).
Focus Points:
-Constant tension pressing into the bar while overhead.
-Maintain bar positioning as you descned in the squat.
-Depth will be determined by your ability to keep the bar in the same position overhead.

-Choose a weight that you have the ability to perform 10+ reps with unbroken when fresh. (Quality Reps).
-If the skill isnt quite there yet on the overhead squat, lets use a PVC or empty barbell and increase our reps to 15 each set.
-Choose the option for toes to bar that you have the ability to do 10+ reps unbroken when fresh.
Goal:
Perform at least first 1-2 rounds unbroken for each exercise (perform in 1 set without breaking the 9 reps).
