Performance:
1) Spend 15 min, work up to 1-RM overhead squat
2) 20 x back squats
50 x pull ups
Run 800m
For the back squat, pick a weight that will present a significant challenge in doing 20 unbroken reps. If you get 20, that last rep should be very difficult. If you get 15-19, that’s excellent. If you get 11-14, that’s ok, you just went a bit heavy. If you get 10 or fewer, take some weight off and finish off the 20.
Competition:
1) Front Squat
5 x 1 @ 90% 1 RM
2) Eight sets of:
Snatch x 1.1

1. Front Squat @ 195#…it felt really easy
2. There was no weight for the snatch, so I made it a ladder:
95#,115#,115#,125#,125#,135#,145#,155#
155# was my 1RM a few weeks ago so I was stoked to do two.
3. GHD was no sweat
