WEDNESDAY WORKOUT

This will be the end of Cycle 1 of the new squat program so push this one hard!!

STRENGTH:
Back Squat 
(Still using 90% of your actually 1RM for weight calculation)

Warm Ups: 
55% x 5 reps 
65% x 5 reps 

Make sure to work out any hips shifting or ankle issues between these sets...

Rolls & stretch out... Ankles, Inner thighs, IT Band & Piriformis 

Work Sets: 3:00 Clock Per Set
75% x 5 reps
85% x 3 reps 
95% x MAX REPS
(Looking for 6-8 reps or possibly more!)

Anything past 6 reps would be a new rep max personal record!!

WORKOUT:
Kettlebell madness!!
18 KB Sumo Deadlift High Pulls (35#/53#)
12 KB Swings (35#/53#)
6 Alternating KB Snatches (35#/53#)
* 5 rounds for time *
(10 minute cutoff)

If you have KB Snatched before, then you also have the option to SCALE UP to a heavier KB and slide the reps down to 12/8/4 for 5 total rounds...

Be aware of your lower back positioning on this one and fight hard to not let those ribs break!
