2024.06.10 - Training This Week

Programming for week starting June 10th, 2024

Hi all, happy Sunday.

Disclaimer: Folks from my Barbell classes - Monday programming for Barbell corresponds to “Day 1” and Wednesday programming for Barbell corresponds to “Day 4.”

All other Days reflect my own personal training schedule, and do not reflect any gyms’ or facilities’ workouts - past or present.

Please do not expect to see these workouts (Except for “Day 1” and “Day 4”) in a gym or facility unless you and I have coordinated specifically to run through these workouts together.

Thanks!

Nolan

  • 0-5 - Dynamic Mobility and Intros / QOTD

  • 6-11 - Warm-up - 5 minutes, continue to cycle through…

    • 4 Inchworms with a push-up

    • 4 Up-dog/down-dog cycles

    • 8 KB Goblet Squats

    • 8 KB American Swings

    • Off-time: 5 sets of 6 or 8 or 10 box dips

  • 27-29 - transition and set-up for Heat 1

  • 30-52 -

    • Go time: AMRAP10, as many Barbell Back Squats as you can do while moving with quality. Does not have to be unbroken.

    • Two heats. Nonworking heat loads plates for working heat.

    • Intended stimulus - legs will want to fall off by the end of this. Seriously though - want it to be sore when you step into your car tomorrow.

    • Non-working heat is accumulating Hand Release Push-ups
