A. Every minute, on the minute, for 5 minutes:
Front Squat
*Set 1 – 2 reps @ 60%
*Set 2 – 2 reps @ 65%
*Set 3 – 2 reps @ 70%
*Set 4 – 1 rep @ 75%
*Set 5 – 1 rep @ 80%
Rest one minute, and then…
Every two minutes, for 10 minutes (5 sets):
Front Squat
*Set 6 – 85% x 1 rep
*Set 7 – 85-90% x 1 rep
*Set 8 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 9 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 10 – 90+% x 1 rep
For sets 6-10, let feel dictate loading. The goal is to establish today’s “heavy” lift. “Heavy” for the day is the load immediately before that at which you would lose proper mechanics and positioning. If you determine that you’ve reached that load for the day prior to set 10, stop there.
B. Build to 85-90% of your 1-RM Snatch, and then…
Every 20 seconds, for as long as possible…
Snatch x 1 rep @ 85% of your 1-RM
RULES – You may only take one attempt within each 20-second window. If you miss within the first 10 reps, keep going. If you miss a second time, or if your first miss comes after your first 10 snatches, stop. Note how many reps you made, and note any miss that occurred within the first 10 reps.
C. Every 2 minutes, for 16 minutes (8 sets) of:
Back Squat x 3 reps @ 85% of 1-RM
