March 2, 2020 – Invictus Athlete

Primary Training Session
A.
Two sets of:
6 Single-Arm Kettlebell Swings
6 Front-Racked Kettlebell Reverse Lunges
6 Front-Racked Kettlebell Cossack Squats
6 Single-Arm Kettlebell Presses
6 Kettlebell Windmills
Rest 60 seconds and switch sides

B.
Every minute, on the minute, for 8 minutes:
Pause Front Squat x 1 reps @ 24X1

Choose one load for all eight sets. The heaviest load used last week would be a good, ambitious goal.

C.
Every 2 minutes, for 16 minutes (8 sets):
High Hang Snatch + Snatch @ 75-80% of 1-RM Snatch

Working on perfect mechanics at all phases in the lift.

D.
Every 2 minutes, for 10 minutes (5 sets):
Back Squat x 4 reps @ same load used last Monday

E.
Five sets of:
30/22 Calories of Assault Bike
7 Ring Muscle-Ups
Rest 90 seconds

Goal is to be as fast as possible, while maintaining similar times throughout the five sets.

Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.

Strength Accessory Option
A.
For max reps:
2 Minutes of Box Step-Overs with Barbell (115/75 lbs)
(box height should be between 16-20″ for most people – if you’re shorter, go on the low end, if you’re taller, the higher end of the range)
4 Minutes of Strict Pull-Ups

B.
Four sets of:
Single-Leg Stiff Leg Barbell Deadlift x 10 reps each leg @ 3011
Rest 90 seconds

Assault Bike Conditioning Option

Thirty Four (34) sets of:
30 seconds of Assault Bike
Rest 30 seconds

Be consistent across the 34 sets. A good goal would be to maintain 12-14/8-10 calories every 30 seconds and the same pace as February 17.

Running Endurance Option
Ten rounds for distance of:
2 Minutes of Running @ 1-Mile PR Pace
90 Seconds of Running @ 60-65% of 1-Mile PR Pace

Rowing Endurance Option
Ten rounds for distance of:
2 Minutes of Rowing @ 2k PR Pace
90 Seconds of Rowing @ 60-65% of 2k PR Pace

A. Done with 32# kb B. FS pause @ 235#. Face got nice and red on this one, thought I might pop ? Sets 5-8 were a grind! Happy with this- any heavier & form (knees caving) might have been an issue C. HHS+SN @ 155×4 -> 160×2 -> 165×2 no misses. Really focused on that last extension and staying connected with the bar on the drop under. D. First set at 285 (84%) was a little ambitious ? Dropped to 275# for remaining sets E. Skip to prioritize strength Strength Access: A. 2min (step up & down only) @115.… Read more »
