WEDNESDAY WORKOUT

And strength work has commenced!!

KEEP CLOSE TABS ON YOUR NUMBERS FOR THE NEXT 16 WEEKS!

STRENGTH:
Back Squat
3x5 @ 70% of your 1RM you tested last week (3:00 clock for each of these sets)
(If you did a 3 rep max then do 73% of that)

You will have 6-8 minutes to do THREE warm up sets, quickly working up to your weight for the 3x5...

SET 1 - 50% x5 Reps, SET 2 - 60% x3 Reps, SET 3 - 65% x2-3 Reps

This first week probably won't be too heavy so really work TECHNIQUE and DEPTH for this first week...

WORKOUT:
Sumo Deadlift High Pull (53#/75#)
Push Press (53#/75#)
21-18-15-12-9

OR

Use (63#/95#) & Do 18-15-12-9-6

OR

Use (95#/135#) & Do 21-15-9

Pick your poison on this one, but realize low back position can get tough to hold on this one so be smart!

(8 minute cutoff reguardless of what you pick)

POST THE WEIGHT YOU USED FOR THE 3x5 & YOUR RESULTS FOR THE WORKOUT TO COMMENTS
