FOR THE COACH
Stimulus
- Workout brief: https://youtu.be/XbA29oQX4Eo
- Resource Links: CompTrain Gym Resource Drive
- In part 1 we have our final week of cleans in our current cycle. Athletes can attempt a PR today, but the focus is to lift as heavy as possible for 3 singles, building each set as able. Encourage athletes to begin at 85% if they are able. Athletes should complete whatever clean variation they have been performing in the past 3 weeks. In part 2, we have a grip and midline burner. Every round adds up to 11 reps. Athletes should pick weights and a TTB variation that allows them to complete all rounds of both movements in no more than 2 sets. This is a CompTrain repeat so make sure your athletes check prior scores if they’ve completed this before.
- Deadlift | Moderate. 2 sets or less.
- TTB | 2 sets or less.
The One | Teaching Focus
Press the bar.
- In both our deadlift and TTB we’ll focus our teaching on pressing the barbell into the body or pressing the rig away and down in order to utilize the lats. This will make athlete’s movement both more safe and efficient.
Modifications

TTB

Logistics
- In part 1, you’ll have a great opportunity to celebrate athletes publicly. Whether athletes hit a clean PR or improve some element of their mechanics, bring attention to these wins and celebrate them in class. Make sure to give your athletes plenty of time to build to a starting weight. We want all 3 of these singles to be at a challenging load fo 85% or above.
- In part 2, you can manage a large group by beginning athletes on opposite movements in the ladder. Group 1 would begin with 10 deadlifts and 1 TTB while group 2 would begin with 10 TTB and 1 deadlift.

Mindset
"Most people think they lack motivation when they really lack clarity." - James Clear
Rowing harder doesn't help if the boat is headed in the wrong direction.
When was the last time you sat quietly on where you would be in a year from today?
5 years from today?
10 years?
… 20 years?
It’s blurry, and should be. Yet this pivotal step is far too often missed, rushed, or even avoided all together. The result: we climb a ladder to a window we never fully intended to climb into.
This is where working harder meets working smarter.
In this journey, clarity is a weapon. It will bring light to situations where we need patience, and to others where we need action. Our guardrails as we steamroll down the highway, as effort and drive is our strength. We just need to continue to point ourselves in the right direction.
