  2. 6+6 Single Arm Prone Angel
  3. 10″+8 Single Leg Straight Bridge (each side)
Squat Position Pallof Press
Single Arm Prone Angel
Single Leg Straight Bridge

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
  1. 15/20 Two Foot Hops (Try to reactive work with foot)
  2. 6/8 Forward Power Hops (Try reach max vertical height)
Two Foot Hops
Forward Power Hops
The daily 1-2-3…10 RM isn’t a lifetime PR. Lifts must be fast (no grind or sticking point) and tecnhically as much correct as possible.
Drop ‘n go needs to be fast, respect the 20” window to reproduce a competition situation.
We recommend to warm up the squat snatch before starting e2mom in order to trigger the neural system for a deep bottom squat position and stability.
Power Snatch

Warm-up by 3 singles until reach @ [percent value=’50’ of=’snatch’ in=’kg’][/percent] then

Every 2′ for 12′

In 20″ window find daily 2 RM drop&go – add load every set

rest 3′ then

Every 2′ for 12′

1 Power Snatch @ 95% of your your daily 2RM

Try to keep a solid good lift form even with high percentage.
Focus on not “dropping” to the floor and praying for a good rebound but control the eccentric phase and push explosively with the feet when you break the parallel.
If you feel the weight is too heavy, use the stress balance on top page to scale your loads. This is not a crime!!!
Back Squat

10 @ [percent value=’55’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
8 @ [percent value=’65’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
6 @ [percent value=’75’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
4 @ [percent value=’82’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
2 @ [percent value=’87’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
2 @ [percent value=’90’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
1 @ [percent value=’92’ of=’Backsquat’ in=’kg’][/percent]

Target is always to manage the effort and don’t drain all your energies before the third round.
There are three types of targets for the athletes.
Elite: (> 50 C2B UBK | > 130 thrusters on 8′ test): break your worst exercise and push on your best movement. Target time < 4’30”RX: (30-40 C2B UBK | 100-120 thrusters on 8′ test): break both movements from the first round, find a good pace and focus on the breath without crossing your anaerobic threshold target time of 5-9’.Experience: (< 30 C2B UBK | < 100 thrusters on 8′ test): in order to have the same stimulus should perform the classic FRAN for testing their work capacity. You know that you can manage at least [percent value=’100′ of=’thrusters-in-8′ in=’ thrusters in a minute ‘] and [percent value=’25’ of=’c2b-in-2′ in=’C2B in 30″‘]
[workout_short title=’Fr_Fran’ result_type=’time’]

Friendly Fran
3 rounds:

21 Thrusters
21 Chest to Bar

W 85 lb. M 115 lb.

Time cap: None

Notes. This event begins with the barbell on the floor and the athlete standing behind the designated line. After the call of “go,” the athlete may move to the barbell to perform 21 thrusters, then 21 chest-to-bar pull-ups. The athlete will repeat this couplet for 3 rounds.

The event is over when the athlete completes all the required work and crosses the start/finish line. Time stops at the athlete’s first contact over the line. The athlete’s score will be the total time it takes to complete the event.

[/workout_short]

The goal of this workout is to perform a high skill gymnastic movement under cardiovascular fatigue, trying to keep a correct wattage on erg and lower at minimum the transition time before the muscle ups.
Try to perform the first and the last round with a maximum 10% of time gap.
A good technique on ring and bar MU allows you to perform a safe and efficient movement when your heart rate is high and you can’t waste energy. Work on this since being efficient means being faster.
For Time

We advise to lift without catch ‘n go, even if the first rounds are easy. Use them to prepare a higher percentage with the same timing and form.
Jerks are any style and normally split jerks allow to lift heavier but push jerk are faster in a sport specific contest.
Try to lift:
– With pause b/t Clean and Jerk during last 4 set.
– Find repeatability of every single repetition of this section.
Power Clean&Jerk
Every 1:15 for 5′

1+1+1+1 @ [percent value=’60’ of=’cleanjerk’ in=’kg’][/percent]

Every 1:30 for 6′

Every 1:30 for 3′

Time to get out your best efficiency during Barbell cycling. Target is to keep a smooth pace focusing as if you’re on a competition floor with hard judging. Complete every single repetition.
Try to:
– Keep the same pace during each set;
– Move smoothly without pause and keep breathing;
– Be efficient, less power output and less bar move means less energy loss.
Power Clean + Push Jerk + Thrusters + Hang Squat Clean

2+2+2+2 @ [percent value=’60’ of=’cleanjerk’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 1′
1+1+1+1 @ [percent value=’70’ of=’cleanjerk’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′

Avoiding bouncing on the chest allows us to train our starting strength which is the critical phase of the press.
If you feel the weight is too heavy feel free to scale the percentage.
Bench Press

10 @ [percent value=’58’ of=’bench-press’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′

2 @ [percent value=’92’ of=’bench-press’ in=’kg’][/percent] rest 3′
1 @ [percent value=’95’ of=’bench-press’ in=’kg’][/percent]

Terminate workout when:
– you begin to compensate biomechanically;
– breathing cannot get back down to baseline during rest
– you can no longer elicit [percent value=’170′ of=’ex-test-bike-erg’ in=’watt’]When you fail, in the remaining time cool down until 45:00 by easy monostructural elements.
Respect the work time, set the timer like an EMOM with 25” on 1’ off.
Place your plyo box very close to the Erg.
Burpees Box Jump Over must be as fast as possible without stepping up/down and try to be explosive with your chest on the floor.
Increasing wattage risks being lost of muscles coordination. This type of work is the one of the best way to increase mitochondrial biogenesis and density.
Bike Erg
As many round as possible in 45′

We advise to lift in a drop ’n go style to save your lower back and train starting position, strength and power.
On first round pace can be fast but lift must be technically correct for trasfert the pattern on a high percentage.
On last set increase pace to save time for load barbell.
Last load are “sexy” but consistency of medium/heavy fast double and triple are really important in a sport specific contest, don’t understimate it.

Time to get out your best efficiency during Barbell cycling. Target is to keep a smooth pace focusing as if you’re on a competition floor with hard judging. Complete every single repetition.
Try to:
– Keep the same pace during each set;
– Move smoothly without pause and keep breathing;
– Be efficient, less power output and less bar move means less energy loss.

In the strength training we advise to don’t lift in a touch n’ go sport specific style, drop every rep and train starting strength, remember that first 2 cm are the hardest part of the lift.
The deadlift are pushing exercise and not a pull, feel feet pushing the floor and be patient, let the leg do their job without involve lower back.
Arm are relaxed for all lifting time, biceps don’t help you to lift 200 kg!
Last but not least, take a deep breath and engage your “core muscle” before every lift to create a compact structure.

Follow 30” on – 30” off scheme, try to move for all 30” and recover fast on 30” rest.
Row @ [percent value=’80’ of=’ex-test-rower’ in=’watt’][/percent] and try to come back heart rate to the baseline on 30” off, t2b and db snatch are a grip dominant couplet, don’t burn it.
Focus on the second part of the workout continues to move with a good pace and don’t commute work on a 15” on 45” off, grip and core are tired, try to be efficient and smart on every movement to save energy and relax your muscle every time you can also while performing the exercise.
