250m Row @ working pace
5 Single Dumbbell Box Step-Up Overs @ working load
20 Double Unders
Use this to confirm row split, step-up height and dumbbell load, and rope rhythm before the clock starts on “Mako”
Every 2:30 x 5 Sets
Clean + 2 Hang Clean + Front Squat
Starting @ 65% of 1RM Clean and increasing to a heavy complex for the day. The priority is still the Hang Clean here, but we are looking to increase to a heavier load than we did in week 2 of this cycle.
The Clean can be either a Power Clean or a Squat Clean. Ideally we catch high and start catching lower and lower on each set
Modifications:
– Adjust to the Hang Power Clean for all cleans or 3 Hang Power Cleans + 3 Front Squats for newer athletes in order to manage positions and develop technique.
