Skill
Front Squat
6 sets of 3 reps
Target about 70% of your max
Hold the same weight across all 6 sets, and leave room to grow; we’re doing the same 4 week linear progression with the front squat that we did with the deadlift last month.
Workout of the Day
3 rounds for time:
400 meter run
16 dumbbell push jerks (one DB)
16 dumbbell overhead lunges (one DB)
Switch arms after 8 reps on both dumbbell movements
16 minute time cap
Use a dumbbell weight that’s manageable for 8 unbroken overhead lunges per arm when you’re fresh; that movement will be the limiting factor for most people and it degrades quite quickly, so make sure it feels strong going into the workout.
