Week of 22 August, 2021

Ok – I may have spoke too soon. You may want to use your working 1RM for this work. Take your 1RM Front Squat and multiply it by .90. Monday is basically a re-do of Friday’s session. That session left my legs, especially quads pretty, pretty spicy.

So, if you are competing this weekend, here’s my recommendation: do the lifting on Monday and Wednesday. On Friday, follow the warm up protocol, then call it and practice some skills that get you ready for Saturday. I will post something.

Thursday will be our standard row/row/light gymnastics pre competition workout.

And make sure you are checking the accessory page. Theres some good stuff going on over there.
