Primary Strength Session
Empty Barbell Movement Primer

Overhead Squat x 5 reps
(use a progressively narrower grip for every set)
Rest as needed

A.

Take 12-15 minutes to build to today’s “heavy” Clean

B.
Four sets for times of:
90 Double-Unders
7 Dumbbell Box Step-Overs (70/50 lb DBs to 24″/20″)
5 Ground to Overhead
Rest 2-3 minutes

You must finish your sets under 4 minutes (many of you will be much faster), and the ground to overhead should take up 20-40 seconds of that time. Your goal will be to determine how much you can lift for five reps in that time domain. Males may want to start around 185 lbs and build from there each set; females might start around 125 lbs.

C.
Bench Press
* Set 1 – 5 reps @ 70-75%
* Set 2 – 5 reps @ 75-80%
* Set 3 – 4 reps @ 80-85%
* Set 4 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
* Set 5 – 2 reps @ 90-95%
Rest 2 minutes between sets.

Primary Conditioning Session
For time:
30/20 Calories of Assault Bike
30 Burpees to a 4″ Platform
30 Power Snatches (95/65 lbs)

This should be fast! Push the bike and burpees then hang on to that light barbell. Can you go unbroken? A good goal would be to get to the barbell before the 3 minute mark.
