Another 6 Week CYCLE has come to an END!

8/30/2018

Comments

 
6 weeks of Training the previous cycle has come to an end and there have been some amazing personal be(a)sts.
For instance:
210kg Deadlift by Diego (a 10kg increase)
3 Muscle ups from Steph (from 0)
2:31min Run by Nick (from 2:45)
1:35min for 50 Burpees by Linh
71kg Snatch by Derik (from 70kg)
4:05min Baseline by Diego
and many more. 
A special mention to the 7 week challengers who started with no knowledge of weightlifting and finished with above body weight deadlifts! WOOT!
The list is long and the bell was broken a couple of times from how hard it was rung!
Keep it up everyone. Another 6 weeks till the next benchmark. Can't wait to see what everyone gets then

power
​POWER SNATCH
The power snatch is the most basic variation of the snatch; the only difference is the height at which the bar is received.
The power snatch can be used to train speed and force production in both the second pull and the third pull by limiting the amount of time and distance the lifter has available to get under the bar.
1 X 5 : 65%
1 X 5 : 70%
1 X 5 : 70%
1 X 5 : 75%
REST 90-120sec
** If you performed cleans in you last training session, this will be a 3 position snatch drill for you

**If you trained snatches on the weekend, you will be running cleans instead at the same percentages

3 POSITION CLEAN + 1 X JERK

Clean from the ground (pos 1), knees or Low Hang (pos 2) and hips or high hang (pos 3), followed by one Split Jerk
10 X 3 : 75%+

strength

PUSH PRESS
The push press is a very common accessory exercise in weightlifting to help the jerk.

If the knees rebend at all after the initial dip and drive, the lift is no longer a push press, but a push jerk. If the feet remain totally flat during the drive of the legs, the drive is not hard or long enough—the heels will rise at least slightly if the leg drive is adequate. Each rep of multiple-rep sets should begin from a dead stop and the full jerk rack position.
4 X 5 : 70%


BACK SQUAT
AKA Squat
The back squat is the most basic strength exercise in weightlifting, and one of the most commonly used exercises other than the competition lifts.
1 X 20 : 65%

​cool down

Harop curls x 5
