20s max reps: Hollow Crunch A move from Pilates. Come into a crunch position with the upper body and extend legs off the ground. The straighter and lower to the floor your legs are, the harder. However, if you feel it in your back, raise and/or bend the legs so you maintain contact with the floor with your lower back. Arms are straight either side of your body, quickly batting the air.

Notes:
Hip swivel – From plank from elbows, tip to each side allowing the hip to tap the floor, or nearly so.

FLR shoulder tap — From a high plank position alternate tapping each shoulder. Do this slowly and with control. For extra bang, raise the opposite leg to the moving hand. Control the hips as much as possible. Do not swing wildly from side to side.

Star V-ups — Supine position, arms & legs in star shape, sit up and reach for your opposite raised leg. For the first interval stick with one side. On the second round do the other side.

Hollow Crunch — legs remain off ground, arms extended and over chest or head, crunch by pulling shoulders off ground, pressing back into the floor.

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.

C. Every 90 seconds, for 9 minutes (6 sets):
Split Jerk x 1 rep @ 80-90%
Goal is to groove perfect footwork and mechanics with a relatively high percentage of your 1-RM in these sets. Do not progress the load if your mechanics falter.

Back Squat x 1 rep
Followed by…
Every 2 minutes, for 6 minutes (3 sets):
Back Squat x 3 reps @ 75-80% of today’s heavy single
