Workout Overview

Stimulus

In part 1 we’re continuing our 3 x 8 format with push jerks. Athletes should begin their first set with a load they’re very confident in and then continue to build as able each round. In part 2 we have a nice little barbell cycling piece today, aiming to hang onto unbroken sets of push jerks throughout. Choosing smart places to rest and a consistent but quick strategy on the power cleans will be important once we get a few rounds deep.

Scoring

Time to complete work

Movements

Power Cleans | Light to moderate. Quick singles. 
Push Jerks | Unbroken throughout.

The One | Teaching Focus

Rack position 
In both the receiving position of the clean and the launching position of the jerk we want the barbell truly resting on the athlete’s “shoulder shelf”.

Logistics

In part 1, pair athletes up in groups of 2 or 3 and cue them to lift on alternating minutes. Ensure that the floor space around yout racks are clear so that athletes can safely bail out and drop the bar if necessary. 

In part 2, the total always equals 10 reps. Thinking about it this way can help athletes remember their rep count. Make sure your room is set up so athletes have plenty of room around them to complete this workout safely.

Mindset

“Excitement comes from achievement. Fulfillment comes from the journey.”

Winning the award is exciting. Fulfillment is looking back at the hard work put in.

There’s irony when we think about defining moments. We build up in our minds that accomplishing that “thing” will be the ultimate. And when we get there, hell yeah will it be exciting. But the podium does not change who we are.The real defining moments were the experiences that led up to those big achievements.

The trials, the tribulations, the lessons learned. The early mornings. The late nights. The deep and unforgettable relationships we build through the blood, sweat, and tears.The dopamine hit comes when we win; when we reach the goal, when we get the promotion.

The everlasting fulfillment comes from the journey. And it’s a hell of a drug.
