Day one of week one of the next loading phase. Our focus this week is on squatting … YAY!
Front Squat – 1RM
Snatch – 1RM + 3×3 with a 2 second pause at the knee!!
Back Squat – 1RM + 3×3
Clean Pulls – heavy 3 (NOT MAX!!)
Technique is the focus of the snatch work, don’t go too hard after that max. Save it for the squatting.
The clean pulls are there to drill in technique and add some pulling volume. I suggest that you do only the concentric part of the pull. Don’t max, just go up to the heaviest 3 you can do with good solid form. Hit ALL the right positions, get it in that hip. Drill drill drill.
Here’s Arron doing 5 reps with double bodyweight on the Back Squat. Fun!
