For the Coach

Resource Drive

Workout Overview

Stimulus

This is our final week of the cycle for these two lifts!  Today is our opportunity to see how staying consistent through this cycle has paid off.  In part 2, Two bikes each round with some low volume barbell in between to break it up, means we'll be spending more time on our bikes today than at the bar. Finding a pace that lets us transition smoothing between the bar and bike will be key today.

Scoring

Score | Rounds plus reps completed.

Movements

Bike Erg | 1:15 or less of work each time. Paced to allow for quick moves to the barbell.

Power Cleans | Small cycled sets or fast singles today, whatever allows us to keep the bar moving.

Push Jerks | 1-2 sets, no more than 2 today. This will be the limiting factor for our barbell weight today.

The One | Teaching Focus

Hip Extension

Encourage athletes to focus on a strong ‘pop’ of the hips in each rep, which will help propel the bar upward in a clean or support the drive overhead in the jerk. This not only improves performance but also helps in maintaining energy over the 18-minute AMRAP by relying on larger muscle groups to do the heavy lifting, reducing the fatigue on smaller muscles.

Look For

  • Bike | The bike can be pushed some, but we dont want athletes to push the bike to where they cannot get straight to the bar and pick it up.  So look for athletes to be holding a smart effort to be able to get right to work on the barbell lifts.
  • Push jerk | We want to see a strong hip pop before we move under the bar.  If athletes have a “muted” hip, cue them to jump then punch. 
  • Power clean | We want to look for hip extension here too.  The bigger the hip extension the easier it will be to hold onto the bar longer.
