Strength Accessory Option

Every minute, on the minute, for 6 minutes:
5 Max Effort Jumps
5 Supinated Grip Bent Over Barbell Rows*

Jumps: The point here is to get to max power. You can choose to jump over something for height and/or distance, broad jump for max distance, box jump for max height, etc.

Rows: Need to go heavy, if you can do 5 reps throughout the workout, the weight was too low. By the end you should only be able to do 3 reps correctly. By correctly that means biceps (long head), latissimus dorsi, NO TRAPS, and internal obliques and glutes medius

*Start with close-grip bench press for 5 reps, move to normal grip for 5 more reps, move to wide grip for 5 reps. The weight should be heavy enough that you cannot keep going.

Hiii!! First day on the athlete program!
Just wondering what we were supposed to do for the sandbag squats?
I just did bear hug style with a big bag (100lbs).
Was wondering if it was meant to be front/back rack or over the shoulder or maybe I did it right!? Sure wrecked my glutes!!

Thanks!

Mobility done. A and B. My wrist still hurts and I can’t perform a full snatch, so focused on pull techniques, trying to fix the points that you show me, being more patient and keeping over the bar longer, and finishing the pull. C. 185/235/245/245/245/245 D. Done with 53 lb kettlebells Skipped conditioning, muscle ups could get my injury worst. I ran instead. Strength accessory option A. 30″ box landing with straight knees. 185 lb on the barbell. B. 70 lb kettlebells instead of sandbag 185 on first round of bench press, then 135 on the rest, couldn’t keep going.… Read more »

Yeah! I will include some gatorades on days like that.

Yes it’s getting better, thank you! It still hurts when I put pressure in extension, so I will avoid things like handstand walk and front rack for a while. I feel that it will be fully recovered soon.

You don’t need to load A heavy but if you feel good and are sound with the positions then you can add load. Good to know for the future weeks as these will come up regularly!

Conditioning: 7:37, 8:17, 9:57 last set was all heart and a lot of heavy breathing.

UB Sandbag squats, MUs 7-3, 7-3, 5-5, went conservative here and didn’t push sets since I’m on the last day of healing a small palm tear from Bridges. But they were fast and snappy. Running was sad and slow.

Harnessed bear crawls & Sandbag Carries Done. 100lbs, then 2x150lbs.

And that’s all she wrote.
