For the Coach

Workout Overview

Stimulus

In part 1, This is the third week of our 4-week Triple Threat strength cycle. Instead of the usual powerlifts, we're focusing on three alternative compound lifts (push press, front squat, and hang power clean) to build strength, stability, and power and to keep training fresh and engaging. We will gradually increase weights following a structured percentage range with the goal of achieving new 3-rep maxes by the end of the cycle.The hang power cleans today should be performed unbroken (not dropping between reps). 

In part 2, Choose weights/reps/variations that allow you to complete each cluster of two rounds in less than 5-4-3-2-1 minutes, respectively.

Scoring

Score: Time

Movements

Intended Intensity: RPE 7-8

Target Loading: Moderate (55-65% of 1RM Power Clean)

Fitness Attribute Improved: Aerobic Power [VO2 Max]

Target Score: 5-9 Minutes

Double Unders: Stay relaxed and streamlined throughout your reps. Make your transitions quick by picking up and setting down your rope in the same spot and the same way each time. 

The One | Teaching Focus

Fast Elbows

Elbows must rotate quickly to receive the bar in the front rack.
Prevents the bar from crashing down.

Strategies

Both of these movements will spike your heart rate, so use your transitions to take a deep breath. 

Singles on the cleans will likely be fastest for most individuals. Some athletes may benefit from cluster sets or unbroken sets if they are really strong.

Imagination and dreaming are essential to envisioning new possibilities and planning for a better future.
