• Coaching Notes

We are finishing off our main test lifts today, with the 3RM Front Squat to start things off today before moving into a retest of the workout “Freddy Krueger” to round out our test week. The goal today for the 3RM Front Squat is to end at somewhere around 90% and even 90%+ for some. This is a challenging lift and the focus should be on maintaining a quality front rack position, pressing up through the elbows and driving hard out of the hole. For “Freddy Krueger” we are looking at holding a challenging pace on the run around 5k pace or 88-90% effort before getting into a challenging set of 40 Alternating DB Snatch and 20 Thrusters. We want athletes to choose the same scaling modifications they did Week 1 in order to get a true retest. However it would also be something for athletes if they were lower on the loads and they were able to move up to our Level 3 option and match the same time they did week 1. This is where the coach comes in to challenge athletes to tackle stimulus to the best of their ability.
