• D – Athlete setup for first working set

The first 20 minutes of our class will be spent reviewing, teaching, and getting you guys warmed up for class.

2a) 20:00 – 35:00 – Every 1:30 x 10 sets: 3 Back Squats

Start with a moderate load, 50-60% of your 1RM and take your time building to and establishing a heavy triple for the day. The last set does not need to be your heaviest, in a piece like this you might see your heaviest set around 6th, 7th, or 8th set, which leaves you to back-off to 80-85% for some nice finishing sets.

2b) 36:00 – 48:00 – Every 2:00 x 6 sets:

Sets 1-3 – 5-8 Strict Pull-ups

Sets 4-6 – 8/side Single Arm Dumbbell Row

Use assistance or load as deemed fit for the Strict Pull-ups. Try to pick a rep range that you can maintain unbroken for all 3 sets. For the Dumbbell Row use something that is heavy that you can maintain, something your first set you can maybe just barely do 9-10 reps if you had to. Perform all reps on 1 side before switching to the other.

2c) 52:00 – 60:00 – 16 sets of :20 ON/:10 OFF:

Odd Sets – Max Hollow Rocks

Even Sets – Max Calories Ski/Bike/Row

Alternate between the two movements each set, max reps on both, get after it.
