Clean Complex

7 Sets

Clean Pull + Clean

*Rest as needed between sets


COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY:

-Banded Front Rack Stretch 1min/side

-Alternating Elbows in Front Rack :30sec

-Clean Warm Up (VIDEO in Exercise Library)

-Slowly build in the complex until you are at a starting weight.

-Begin your sets at 55-65% (of 1RM) or with a light/moderate loading.

Focus Points:

-Triple extension in clean pull (Ankle, Knee and hip).

-Continuous leg drive in the clean pull.

-You should be finishing on the balls of your feet at the top.

-Keep the bar close at extension by using the lats to pull the bar back.

-Build across sets as long as form and speed allows.

-Record results (I would also take video with a side view, this can tell us a lot about your positioning/execution).

Goal:

-If you did this complex from a couple weeks ago let's try and match or better the laoding on our previous time. (Assuming form is good)

COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

Today's Daily Sweat is designed for two entirely different options (hence the name Bloodflow or Blood-Go)

Bloodflow is a recovery approach to your workout.

-Light weights, low intensity, repeatable pacing.

Blood-Go is for someone who didn't perform Murph the day before and is looking for an intense workout.

-Challenging loads, fast pace, all out efforts on the cardio to finish each round.

Focus Points:

-Today's Daily Sweat is very unique in terms of which approach you choose.

-Despite them having their differences, there are some commonalities I'd like us to focus on.

-Full Range of Motion on all movements. Do not let the loading put a damper on the quality of movement.

-Breathing and your pace should be a priority focus point.

-Transitions from one movement to another need to be efficient and waste very little time.

Goal:

Bloodflow = Constant steady movement with a repeatable pace each round. Use light weights.

Blood-Go = Sprint like pace while maintaining quality of movement. Challenge yourself on the loads and speed of each set.

COACH'S NOTES

Dumbbell Bicep Curls

-Begin with a set of dumbbells at your sides and palms facing forward.

-Flex at the elbow and curl the weights up towards your shoulders.

-Slowly lower the weight back down and repeat another rep before you arms reach full extension at the bottom. This will help keep tension on the biceps.

Cuban Press

-Use a light set of weights, no need to go heavy here.

-Start with the weight at your sides and palms facing backwards.

-Hinge at the elbows and raise your arms vertically until your triceps are parallel with the floor (90 degrees).

-Externally rotate so now the weights are above your biceps and you're still in a 90 degree position.

-Press the weight directly overhead and finish in a locked out position with the weights stacked over your shoulders.

-Reverse the order to return back to the starting position.

Single Arm Plank Dumbbell Row

-On an elevated surface like a bench/box, establish a wide stance with the feet, a plank on one arm, and a dumbbell/weight in the opposite arm.

-While keeping the hips square with the floor, row the weight up towards the ribcage while retracting the shoulder blade down and back.

-After holding this position for 1-2seconds at the top, slowly lower the weight back down while maintaining a retracted shoulder blade and avoid rounding the back.
