In part 1, we have the “primer” week of our 20 rep cycle, athletes will explore their thresholds for the 20 rep loading. Athlete’s will use the data gathered from this week 1 primer in order to perform an actual 20 rep max test next week. In part 2, We're moving fast today with short runs and lower volume sets of movements. Since there shouldn't be any points where we aren't moving, our goal is to keep our transitions minimal and smooth. How fast can you keep your running pace while also making fast work of your barbell and rig work today?
Score: Time to complete work. Add 1s per rep not completed if time capped.
Run | :40 or less per run
Deadlifts | Completed in 1-2 sets in less than 1:00.
Toes to Bar| 1-2 sets, these should take less than :45 to complete.
Knees Over Toes
The sumo deadlift will expose this fault in athletes more then most movements. Look for athletes to be actively driving the knees out to keep them tracking over the toes.
