Tuesday – 8/25

1. Strength

Overhead Squat

3 x 10, ascending

As mentioned yesterday, this is a back-off week.  If form feels wonky or you are feeling less than confident with your lifts, use this as a technique day and really kick the crap out of some lighter weights.  If you’re feeling super awesomely terrific, push the weight up a bit and see what you can handle overhead.  One last thing:  ACTIVE SHOULDERS.  If you hold the weight with your arms/shoulders as opposed to allowing your lats/upper back to anchor these 10-rep sets will seem exceedingly difficult.

2. Accessory Work

3 Rounds NOT FOR TIME

10 Romanian Deadlifts

10 GHDSU

10 Pull-ups

10 HSPUs

This is accessory work.  If you have a specific weakness (pull-up strength, kipping HSPUs, etc) work on that today.

3. Extra Credit

a. 10 x 250/200m Row, Rest 1 min between efforts

b. Crossover Symmetry
