INTENDED STIMULUS

At least one bar muscle-up each minute.

COMPETE PROGRAMME

1) Strength II

2) 230908

3) Squat Climb

Deadlift (STRENGTH II

For load:
5 sets:
10 deadlifts
– Rest 2:00-3:00 between sets.)

NOTES

Focus more on technically sound, fast sets. Consider the question: How fast can you move 225 pounds with good technique? Go heavy, but also shoot to move the weight quickly, versus just grind through 10 reps.

Aim for percentages to be between 50-60% of your best 1-rep.

Each set is meant to be unbroken. Feel free to rest with the bar at the top of the deadlift, but you should not have to let go of it at any point.

Rest about 2:00-3:00 between sets.

NOTES

Stimulus & Goals

As long as you finish in the 10:00-15:00 range, focus more on load than time.

Record the loads used for each set.

Increase the loading across clean sets.

1:00-2:00 to finish each set of cleans.

Strategy

Although sets do not have to be unbroken, find a load for each set that you can perform at least a third/half the reps before resting.

When you start the rope climb, jump as high as you can to begin the first pull to reduce the amount of pulling you have to do to complete the rope climb, which will also save your arms for the cleans.
