WHITE BOARD BRIEF

Target | Build to a 3-rep max

Today’s heavy day is a 3-rep thruster. Instead of doing a ton of reps at a light load, we’ll build to a heavy set of just 3 reps. This will be done from the rack, but advanced athletes, or anyone who wants to try, should take the bar from the floor with a squat clean on the first rep.

Athletes who know their 1-rep thruster should start at around 60-70% and build from there. Athletes who don’t know their 1-rep should just start at a weight slightly heavier than what they usually use for a workout.

We’ll be lifting once every 3:00 which should give you at least 2:30 of rest time between lifts. If possible, we want athletes to pair up to minimize equipment needed and to be able to coach everyone more often.

After the workout we’ll finish with a longer accessory piece that builds upper-body stamina. The goal is to hold some sort of handstand for :30, blast through 30 double knee tucks to smoke the core, and then work for :30-1:00 on DB floor pressing without putting the weights down.
