Wednesday 12 July

Warming Up

Warm up in 2-3 sets

Then:

4 x 8 Arnold press

4 x 8 Pendlay row

*Rest at least 90″ between rounds – No yanking on the bar on the pendlay rows, reduce the weight so the only thing moving are your arms, no movement in back or hips.

 

Accessory

3 RFQ

  • 2/2 Turkish Get ups
  • 20/20 m suitcase carry (use a barbell if you can)
  • 20 m Sledge rope pulls

Upper body circuit – aim to load all movements as heavy as you can. If technique is still an issue on the TGU, practice this with light weight first. On the sledge pulls, keep your torso parallel to the floor. Do not use the hips to come upright, to goal is to isolate the lats, similar to the pendlay row.

Thursday 13 July

*Another fun chipper with a lot of high skill movements. Scale the bodyweight movements but don’t make it too easy for yourself. Each combination should take you about 5-6 min.

The barbell should feel light on the first few movements but by the time you get to the snatches you should be down to singles. Athletes limited by technique: use DB’s.
