Workout Overview

Stimulus

Our goal in our interval training today is to have at least 1:00 or more to complete as many calories as possible on the bike.  We should only take about 1 minute to complete our DB reps, while being able to alternate arms however we would like.  Though, we must complete 6 reps on each arm.

Scoring

Score | Lowest Round of Bike Calories.

Movements

Single DB Hang Clean and Jerks | These are heavily programmed today.  We want a challenging load, but still able to move efficiently and safely. 

Run | we should take no longer than 2:15 here.

Bike | High effort to get as many calories as we can, we should remain consistent across the round.

Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Shoulder Stability in Dumbbell Hang Clean and Jerk

Today’s focus is on maintaining shoulder stability during the dumbbell hang clean and jerk. Proper shoulder stability is essential for controlling the dumbbell throughout the movement, particularly during the overhead press portion. Engaging the shoulder stabilizers helps prevent injury, improves balance, and allows for a more efficient and powerful lift.

DB Warm-Up for Single DB Hang Clean & Jerks | Tell, Show, Do, Check

  • 0:20 Alternating Single DB Deadlift (Light Load)
  • Look for hips to drop slightly and the chest to stay proud throughout each rep.
  • 0:20 Alternating Single DB Deadlift + High Pull (Light Load)
  • Emphasize full hip extension before pulling the dumbbell. Watch for athletes to drive through their legs rather than just using their arms.
  • 0:20 Single DB Push Press (Each Arm) (Light Load)
  • Look for a strong finish with the dumbbell stacked directly over the body, bicep close to the ear, and core tight.
  • 0:20 Alternating Single DB Hang Clean (Light Load)
  • Focus on hips extending fully before pulling the dumbbell up to the shoulder, while keeping the torso tall and controlled.
  • 0:20 Single DB Push Jerk (Each Arm) (Light Load)
  • Watch for an explosive leg drive and smooth dip under the dumbbell for a solid lockout.
  • 0:20 Alternating Single DB Hang Clean & Jerk (Workout Load)
  • Ensure athletes fully extend their hips on the clean and drive through the legs on the jerk. Look for smooth transitions between the two movements and a strong, locked-out finish.

Look For

  • DB Hang Clean and Jerks | Look for our teaching focus today, athletes need to maintain good shoulder stability for a heavy DB overhead.  If athletes start to move with poor form, drop down the loading. 
  • Run | It is important to hit the time frame today, if we cannot we should modify it. 
  • Bike | Encourage athletes to push the pace in order to try and get the same amount of calories each round.
