Complementary strengths

Posted by SethHarder at 9:52 AM

Today's workout is the same one that Justin did on Friday. It is borrowed from militaryathlete.com, and was designed to complement the workout we did on Wednesday.

"Big 24":
(1) 8 Rounds
3x "The Exercise" (Hang Squat Snatch, followed by an Overhead Squat) - Start light, but increase weight each round until 3x is hard, but doable
Instep Stretch

(2) 8 Rounds
3x Power Clean + Push Press - Start at ending load of "The Exercise," then increase load each round until 3x is hard, but doable
Pigeon Stretch

(3) 8 Rounds
3x Squat Clean - Start at ending load of Power Clean + Push Press then increase load each round until 3x is hard, but doable

Note: We may scale back to 5-6 Rounds of each given our time constraints.

Results:

  • 1) 45,50,55,60,65,70

Pretty decent progression. I didn't feel cheated by only doing 6 rounds per exercise rather than the prescribed 8. I need to work on the snatches. Really light relative to the other exercises.
