FOR THE COACH
Stimulus
- Workout brief: https://youtu.be/AFzGN_Rghc8
- Resource Links: CompTrain Gym Resource Drive
- In part 1 we have some off-cycle strength work with higher volume deadlifts. Athletes should challenge themselves on the load but not be anywhere near failing a rep in these sets. In part 2 we want athletes to choose moderate weight on the barbell that allows for fast singles on the snatches and deadlifts in 1-2 sets. The goal here is to complete the same number of rounds within each AMRAP.
- Deadlift | Moderate. 1-2 sets
- Snatch | Moderate. Singles.
- Double unders | :30 or less
The One | Teaching Focus
Leg press
- Today’s teaching focus is to emphasize the leg press with both the deadlift and the snatch. Athletes should leave the class with a greater understanding of these movements as a “lower body push” rather than an “upper body pull.”
Modifications
Power Snatch
- Reduce Loading
- Hang Power Snatches
- Dumbbell Power Snatches
- Kettlebell Swings
Deadlift
- Reduce Loading
- Reduce Reps
- Sub Dumbbells or Kettlebells
- Good Mornings
- Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift
Double Unders

- Plate Hops
- Reps of Singles & Doubles (Mix of Both)
- Time On Any Machine
Logistics
- In part 1, athletes can team up in groups of 2 or 3. The assigned lifting time should provide plenty of time for athletes to complete their sets and change loads as needed.
- In part 2, athletes will need access to their own barbells and jump ropes. It will be difficult for athletes to share equipment with a workout of this style. If absolutely necessary you can pair athletes up and have some start on the jump rope and their partner begin on the barnell.

Specific Warm Up (15 Minutes) (9-24)
Double Unders | tell, show, do, check

- Keep the elbows close to the body, pointing downward.
- Hands should be slightly in front of the body so that you can see them in your peripheral vision while looking forward.
- Focus on timing wrist speed
- Focus on wrist rotation and quicken the pace of the jump rope
- :20 Single-Single-High Single
- Focus on controlling the cadence and wrist speed
- Focus on speeding up the wrist for the double
Snatch | tell, show, do, check
- Establish stance and grip
- Hip width stance
- Wide grip / wide enough to perform PVC pass through with no elbow bend
- Full grip on bar
- Bar in contact with shins
- Shoulders slightly over the bar
- Focus on speed through the middle

- Deadlift | Driving through the legs. Cue athletes to press their heels through the ground throughout the lift. Cue athletes to keep the bar pulled into the body.
- Power Snatch | Driving through the legs to push the bar off the floor rather than pull it off the floor with the upper body. Cue athletes to drive through the heels and then jump before pulling with the arms.
- Double Unders | Sound positioning. Cue athletes to keep their elbows slightly bent and their hands down and in front.

Mindset
“There is a reason between listening, and waiting for your turn to speak.” - Simon Sinek
Listening is a skill.
To not “hear” the words of another, but to truly be in the moment. To listen sincerely.
Most listen with the intent to reply. That is, as the other is speaking, they’re already formulating what to say next. In these moments, they are no longer listening. We’ve shifted towards “hearing”.
In conversations today, pay close attention to our thoughts as the other is speaking.
The intention is this:
Listen with the intent to understand.
Not to reply.
