June 10, 2014 – Masters Games Program

Workout of the Day
A.
Three sets, not for time, of:
Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups x 10-12 reps
(working on smooth, efficient rhythm and mechanics)
Nose-to-Wall Handstand Hold x 60-90 seconds
Double-Unders x 40-50 reps

B.
Four sets of:
Clean x 2.2.2 @ 70-75% of 1-RM
(rest 10 seconds between doubles)
Rest 3 minutes

C.
Four sets of:
Bent-Over Rows x 8-10 reps @ 2111
Rest 90 seconds
Tempo Push-Ups x Max Reps @ 2020
Rest 90 seconds
Strict Pull-Ups x 10 reps @ 2110
Rest 90 seconds

***Program Note – I know that today might feel a bit light on volume. That is by design. The program modulates intensity and volume, and we’re at the mid-point, which was a good point to reduce the load, let you heal and be ready to come on strong for the final stretch of training leading into and peaking at Games.

Back today after 5 straight days of self-imposed rest. Wife and I took kids on vacation and all had an awesome time! Celebrated my 45th birthday and then came home to find a Games invite in my email box. That was one heck of a present! Glad I’ve been working out with you guys all this time

Are the doubles in the cleans TnG or just a quick drop & go?

I did TnG, Brent. I think if I had done them as squat cleans I would have had to do a quick drop & go.
