A. Every :90 x 6 sets: (week 1 of 2)

3 Push press

Build over the 6 sets. The goal is to use all the drive we have been working on with push press to drive the bar off your shoulders. Now, as soon as the bar passes your forehead you want to push yourself under the bar getting your head through and your hips back while locking your arms out as fast as you can. The faster you can lock your arms out, the better! don't rush your recovery, make sure you are stable in your catch before standing up. We will do 2 weeks of triples before moving to doubles.

Wednesday

A. Every 2:00 x 5 sets (week 3 of 3)

3 Deadlifts

Note: The goal is to build again from last week, but your form should be priority! if you have to compromise position to pick up the weight you are going to heavy. Control the bar on the way down minimising bounce off the floor, no raising your hips early, no rounding your shoulders forward. Think about driving your feet through the floor, and your hips and shoulders rising at the same time. A more narrow foot stance with your toes pointed forward is the most comfortable and strongest position to pull from for most. Next week we will start building to heavy singles.

B. For time:
