For strength, find a heavy back squat – this can be a max if you’d like. The metcon is one minute of work, one minute of rest for 5 rounds. You’ll do 5 moderately heavy power cleans, then as many toes-to-bar as you can in the remaining time of that minute. In thinking about barbell weight, it should take you 10-30 seconds to allow for enough time for toes-to-bar. You may want to modify to sit-ups in order to get more reps in. Strength Back squat 5, 5, 3, 3, 2, 1, 1, 1 Conditioning 5 rounds for reps: 1 min. to do 5 power cleans, 155/105#, in remaining time ME toes-to-bar rest 1 minute

In the first part of class, you will start with 2 power snatches (reset between reps if you need to) and then 5-10 pull-ups. Treat this as skill practice for whatever you need – if you need strength, then do strict/banded. If you need to work on kipping/butterfly/chest-to-bar, etc, then do so. The 5-10 reps is just a suggestion – tailor it to what you need. You may go up in weight for the snatches after each set.   Strength Alternating: A.) 5×2 Power snatch B.) 5×5-10 Pull-ups Conditioning For Time Row 1K 30-20-10 Wall Balls (20/14) Pull-ups

Take the bar out of the rack and do 4 push presses and 1 jerk – this may be a power jerk or split jerk (your choice). Focus on staying upright and driving through the heels to generate power. The metcon is 3 rounds for time of deadlifts, clapping push-ups, and KB push presses.The deadlift weight should be about 60-70% of your 1RM. Clapping push-ups require that you leave the ground and touch your hands together – to scale this, try dynamic push-ups where you leave the ground just a bit. You can do this from the knees too. Finally, you will have one KB in one arm and move it from shoulder to overhead. You can either push press or jerk this. Do 10 on each arm for a total of 20 reps per round. Strength 4 push press + 1 jerk Conditioning 3 rounds for time: 10 deadlifts,...
