Hang Clean (Every 3:00 x 5 Sets
Set 1: 4 Hang Clean
Set 2: 4 Hang Clean
Set 3: 3 Hang Clean
Set 4: 3 Hang Clean
Set 5: 2 Hang Clean)

Starting @ 60% on Set 1 (4 Reps), and increasing by feel to a heavier double at around an 8/10 RPE on Set 5.

The Hang 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:

– Again these can be Hang Power Cleans or Squat Cleans

– Adjusting to Dumbbell Hang Cleans can help with limited front rack mobility

Level 1:

Every 3:00 x 5 Sets

5 Hang Power Cleans + 3 Front Squats

*this can be used to reinforce quality positions and provide a little more stimulus for hose that really aren’t loading heavy for the day.

“Checkmate” (Time)

3 Rounds for Time

15 Deadlift

30 Double Unders

12 Power Cleans

30 Double Unders

9 Hang Squat Cleans

30 Double Unders

Barbell: 135/95lb, 61/43kg

Goal: 11-15 minutes

Time Cap: 15:00

RPE: 8.5-9/10

Stimulus: Barbell Cycling / Aerobic Capacity

Primary Objective: Manage the barbell across all three rounds. The loading descends in difficulty from deadlift to power clean to hang squat clean, but the fatigue accumulates in the opposite direction. Athletes who go out too hot on the deadlifts will feel it on the hang squat cleans by round 2.

Secondary Objective: Consistency on the Jump Rope. 30 Double Unders each set is manageable if athletes stay composed. Tripping repeatedly on the rope bleeds time and spikes the heart rate going back into the barbell.
