Off Season: Day 63


**Note about time management – for today’s session, get right into it. The loading is progressive, so you shouldn’t need a lot of extraneous warm-up time. Mobilize what needs to be prioritized, and get to work.

A.) Every minute, on the minute, for 12 minutes:

Minute 1 – Strict Handstand Push-Ups x 4-10 reps
(if you’re proficient, aim for the high end of the range, if you don’t have them yet, perform 3 reps of negatives – a 4-6 second eccentric on each rep)

Minute 2 – L-Seated Dead Hang x 30-45 seconds
(assume the bottom of an L-Pull-Up with heels above horizontal plane of buttocks and hang from the pull-up bar holding position for 30-45 seconds)

Minute 3 – Unbroken Double-Unders x 30-40 reps

B.) Every 90 seconds, for 15 minutes (10 sets):

Split Jerk x 2 reps

(Pause for 2 full seconds in the receiving position before recovering – make notes and adjustments to your footwork and weight distribution)

* Set 1 – 50%
* Set 2 – 55%
* Set 3 – 60%
* Set 4 – 65%
* Set 5 – 70%
* Set 6 – 75%
* Set 7 – 80%
* Set 8 – 85%
* Set 9 – 85%
* Set 10 – 85%

C.) Strict Overhead Press (Rest 2 minutes between sets.)

* Set 1 – 5 reps @ 50%
* Set 2 – 5 reps @ 60%
* Set 3 – 5 reps @ 70%
* Set 4 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
* Set 5 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
* Set 6 – 3 reps @ 85-90%
* Set 7 – 10 reps @ 55-65%

Choose the same load for all three sets of 3 reps. The load used should be challenging to successfully press for three, but if you have more than one failed rep it is too heavy.

D.) Every 6 minutes, for 24 minutes (4 sets) of:

Run 400 Meters
10 Alternating One-Arm DB Snatch (70/50)
20/15 Push-Ups
Run 400 Meters
