In part 1, our max sets are to be done to "Technical Failure" - This means the set is stopped once technical proficiency is lost, not once the lifter can no longer lift the weight. Today's barbell conditioning piece can go sideways quickly if we aren't paying attention to our breathing while we work in the early rounds. Can you find a conservative enough pace in the beginning rounds to allow you to consistently maintain or pick up the pace through the end of the clock?
Total rounds + reps
Power cleans | Light to moderate. Singles.
Front squats | Unbroken.
Push jerks | Unbroken.
Straight bar
With the number of barbell movements today, athletes will increase performance and safety by emphasizing a straight bar path. In the shoulder to overhead, cue athletes to get their chin back & out of the way so that they’re able to press the bar in a straight line from the shoulders to overhead. In both the front squat and the clean we want to guide athletes to keep the bar moving over the middle of the foot.

"Pain versus Discomfort"
There is a common misconception about pain.
Pain is not what we feel inside of a conditioning workout, or the tail end of a heavy squat set.
Real pain is different.
Pain is when we are walking through the garage and stepping on a nail.
Pain is when we lose a limb.
Real pain is when we lose a loved one.
What we feel inside conditioning sets is not pain... It's discomfort.
Training isn’t painful. It’s uncomfortable at times, but – it’s not pain.
Let's use this as a perspective change as we enter today's training.
Today, we’ll get uncomfortable.
