Workout Overview

Stimulus

Team up for “TEAM ABBATTE,” a partner challenge designed to test both your endurance and coordination. Together, you’ll start with a 1-mile run, setting the pace as a team. Following the run, each partner will tackle 21 clean & jerks, but you can’t start lifting until both of you are at the barbell. After your lifts, you’ll hit an 800-meter run, return for another set of 21 clean & jerks each, and then cap it off with a final 1-mile run. Remember, you must run together and work strategically to manage your transitions and maintain a strong pace throughout the workout. Aim to complete all segments within the 35-minute time cap, pushing each other to stay motivated and finish strong!

The One | Teaching Focus

Catch and Dip Stability

In this session, we’re honing in on stabilizing the “catch” in the clean and the “dip” in the jerk. Proper stabilization ensures a seamless transition between these phases, which is crucial for a successful lift. Focusing on a strong catch in the clean helps the athlete to securely receive the bar in a controlled squat position, readying them for a powerful ascent. In the jerk, emphasizing a controlled and shallow dip maintains the athlete’s center of gravity and allows for a more explosive drive upwards.

Look For

  • Run | We have a lot of running today, with little break between.  Athletes need to pace their runs accordingly.  We want to come straight in and get to work on our barbell.
  • Clean and Jerk | We are looking for a quick transition from the clean to the jerk.  The quicker the transition, the less time we are spending under tension.
