Workout Notes

– Welcome to week 2 of this lifting cycle! We will continue to work towards establishing a 5RM sumo deadlift, 3RM hang power snatch, and 1RM clean and jerk.

– Keep loads lighter this week and leave room to add 10-20 lbs to your heaviest set so that you can increase your load each week.

– For today’s Main Lift, use a light-to-moderate load that allows for an emphasis on SPEED and QUALITY of movement.

– For Accessory – I, use a weight for the sandbag that is challenging, but possible to hold for the entire :45.

– For Accessory – II, use a load that allows you to perform all 10 good mornings on each side unbroken. Increase the loading as you see fit, however this does not have to be heavy to be effective.
