Stimulus
– Overview: In this chipper style workout, athletes will be mainly challenged to grind through 1-2 sets of overhead squats. Let’s be smart about our weight choice today as well as our pacing of the deadlifts and burpees that precede the overhead squats.
– Lateral Burpees: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less.
– Deadlifts: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less.
– Overhead Squats: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less.
– Power Snatches: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less.
– Score: Total time. If capped, add 1s for every incomplete rep.
Strategy
– Our strategy on this workout will revolve mostly around the overhead squats. Our big goal here is to complete these reps in 1-2 sets.
– With the overhead squats being the main focus, let’s break the deadlifts in 2-3 quick sets.
– By the time we get to the power snatches, going singles will likely be the quickest way to get our hands on the bar and the best way to keep us moving.
– Let’s pace the first 2 sets of burpees in a way that will allow you to stick to your strategy on the barbell. Choose a modest pace here.
– The last set of burpees should be the only set of burpees we try to push.
