The Goal of the work is to improve your power output of the central nervous system to have a transfert on the movements of strength and power
Pay attention to:
- Perception of the foot on the ground
- Quality movement mechanics
- Impact time which must be as short as possible
3 Sets for Quality
- 15/20 Two Foot Hops (Try to reactive work with foot)

If you need to spend 15 more minutes to work with empty barbell on a single position it’s the right week.
Use the empty barbell warm-up to find the best technique and carry it in the following work at medium percentage.
Remember that also the neural system needs to rest so isn’t necessary to find a heavy single every deload week!!!

Sport Specific – PN
2’30 ON – 30″ OFF – Go Every 3′ x 15′
3 Rounds of
6 Thrusters @45/30Kg
6 Bar Facing Burpees
then
max Double Unders
[/workout_short]
Put a speed rope near your barbell.
This week we just perform the chicken modality, so perform the prescribed round and rep of burpees and thrusters then in the remaining time max number of Double Under.
Strategy: Find a correct pace and pay attention to the chicken modality, distributed the effort for all time long, and remembering that in the fifth round you must perform the same repetition or more than the previous.
In the five-round you can control the rhythm a little faster than the past week because you start without pre-fatigue, repetition is a little less and divided in three-round, work on unbroken set of Thruster and faster pace on the burpee.
At the end of last bar facing burpees bring the rope and perform Double Under until the end of windows time.
Rest time is the same of last week so pay attention to be able to restore the heart rate and starting another interval.
Achievement: Target on the workout was not to fail the chicken modality if you can perform about the same rep you are smart, self-knowledge athlete, 90% of the time workout under control are most important that be able to perform 100 Double Under in the first Round and 30 in the last.
Split Session
Split Your 1st Session Here If You Can
HIIT
AMRAP 2′
10 Burpees Pull-ups
then Row @ [percent value=’100′ of=’ex-test-rower’ in=’watts’][/percent]
rest 1′ x 5 set
Put the Rower near a Pull Up Bar.
Start every round with 10 Burpee Pull Up, in the remaining time Row at prescribed wattage until the end of the 2 minutes.
Strategy: Use the interval to take confidence with the Burpee Pull Up, find the perfect position under the bar to give more efficiency at this complex movement.
Rowing wattage is high but sustainable, all the past week interval training should have helped you use the rest minute to restore the heart rate, the work-rest ratio is 2:1 like the past week but total work time is less than half so enjoy the deload week!!
Achievement: Continue to work with intensity also in the deload week, shorter time, easier skill, the heart rate is high but with low general impact over the body that has time to create physiological adaptations.

Try to maintain the same pace in the three-round and take shorter rest as possible before starting the complex, weight is heavy but could allow you to don’t risk to fail any lift.
Challenging but manageable!!
Use the 1000 m Bike as an active Rest to restore the Heart Rate and be able to push hard in the following set.
The transition is really important when a number of repetition are low and nobody breaks the set, take a breath and don’t think too much!
Achievement:Improve your sub-maximal power endurance under fatigue, improve the barbell cycling efficiency, you must to be fast but clean, every rep can be performed from top to bottom like you have a judge in front of you.
