Warm Up

Dynamic Warm Up (7-10 minutes)


Front Squat (Week 4 of 5)

5x2 @RPE 8

*Perform each rep with a 3 second descend.

*Rest 90sec between sets


COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY:

Fire Hydrant Stretch 5 forward/back each leg.

Front Rack Stretch Alternating Elbows :30sec-1:00.

This is Week 4 of our Strength Cycle.

The focus behind this cycle is to ensure we are re-establishing a solid foundation with both our movement and efficiency through time under tension.

Focus Points:

-Set up a timer to hold yourself accountable to the prescribed tempo in the lowering phase.

-Inhale and hold your breathe to help brace for the entire range of motion. Reset at the top of the rep and repeat.

-Establish a grip just outside shoulder width to help create a nice shelf for the bar to rest on.

-If getting into a front rack position is a challenge due to lack of mobility/range of motion, consider using a SUB.

COACH'S NOTES

MOBILITY/ACTIVATION

Perform a few reps at each station with light weight or body weight.

Focus Points:

-Choose loads and exercise options that allow for continuous movement for 45sec (Or as best as possible).

-When we tested this workout, it was key to stay calm and consistent and not over exert on any one particular movement.

-Shoulder fatigue definitely played a factor in today's daily sweat.

-If you have an exercise that you really excel at and what to push the pace, go for it.

-Have a SUB in mind to switch to mid set if needed.

-If you are watching along and doing the workout with us, just pick a station and follow that person.

CASH OUT: 2mile Run (Tim surprised us with this addition at the end)

-Feel free to cut the distance down based on your skill level and include a walk/jog format if needed.

COACH'S NOTES

We are now on week 8 of our Murph Prep. This is a "Mini Murph" Variation. If you have a weight vest and plan on wearing a vest for the actual "Murph" workout on Memorial Day, now is a good time to start using it.

Focus Points:

-Quality movement for all repetitions.

-Pullups can be any variation you wish (strict, kip, jumping, butterfly etc.)

-Puhsups need to be an option you can touch your chest all the way down but also be able to lock your arms out at the top.

-Air squats need to be as deep as your mobility allows with full ankle, knee and hip extension at the top.

-Move through this with quality as your intention, rather than how fast you can move.

Goal:

-Quality of movement is a top priority.

SUBS

Pullup

-Ring Row

-Any Object Bent Row

Pushups

-Pushup on Knees
