Low volume, high intensity strength work is how we kick off today! Be primed and ready for the 2 working sets of back squats and the goal percentages will feel better for you. Conditioning is a 4 rounder repeat interval cycle. The goal is to really treat each 5:00 as if the next doesn’t exist. Go for broke, trust your fitness/recovery and we will build more fitness. Can you hang onto the DB’s unbroken through lunges? To challenge you even more, can you go through 30 walking lunges in the front rack then stand on the final lunge and go right into the push press? It’ll take more leg drive than you may assume to get overhead after the pull ups and front rack hold!
