Athlete’s Choice

WHITE BOARD BRIEF

Target Loading | 60-80% of 1RM. Athletes should choose a weight they can perform 5-8 reps unbroken, but absolutely no more. If they can perform more than 8 reps, the weight is too light.
• In today’s workout, we are pressing overhead. This will be challenging because you don’t get to use your lower body to assist in lifting the weight. The goal is to go heavy relative to your capacity and also maintain proper technique. As long as your form looks good, continue to add load.
• If you are able to increase load across each set, do so. However, you may have one or two sets with the same weight depending on where you start or your technique.
• After each set, we will rest about 2:00. If you feel like you could attempt your next lift after :30, the weight is not heavy enough.
• After the workout, we will spend time practicing strict and kipping ring dips.
