We are in week 6 of 6 for our strength program – these will be heavy sets, and there will be a lot of reps. Hopefully you have been getting stronger and more durable, so this will be easy. Or you will have some high gravity days and the bar will be heavy. It is perfectly normal to have some reps where you battle and some reps that feel easy. Enjoy the process – this is what strength training is all about.
Next week, we will test for 3RM, and the following week, we will test 1RM. So, be ready to test your hard earned strength.
CFO will be closed on Memorial Day, but remember – we will be doing “Murph” on Saturday. On Tuesday, we will do another Murph/Cindy prep, with a little weightlifting thrown in.
Wednesday will be Snatch practice – no hook, no foot this week. Friday will be heavy deadlift and bench.
