Hey Friends!
It’s hump day! Get in there and grind out another beauty clean session – They’re starting to get heavy! Now is the time to eliminate the pause and do full cleans. You should feel a little stronger as you finish the first pull and bring the bar back in towards your body for the big sexy finish that makes the lift “easy”.
We’re looking at starting a little pool for baby ball – let us know if you’re interested and how much you think we should have “tickets” for. We’re thinking something small, but that way people can have “their day”.

WARM UP
10 Reverse Dislocates + 10 weighted
10 inch worms + 10 push up plus
1-2 Minutes squat therapy with emphasis on ankle dorsiflexion
This assumes you will pass through a squat (to catch the bar in a squat), though ask your coach if this is congruent with your goals or current placement in the progression.
1 clean –squat required- (Performance: 165lb, Athletic*: 110lbs, Health: 65lbs)
1 shoulder to overhead (same)
*Women’s “As Prescribed” weights and reps (Rx)
You must complete the squat clean before moving on to the jerk and you must complete the jerk before moving on to the next squat clean. If you miss a jerk you may power clean the bar to set up your jerk attempt.
Scaling Guide: 30 – 80 ‘reps (15 – 40 ‘rounds’)
Each squat clean counts as a rep, and each jerk counts as a rep. Start at a steady pace watching the clock. Your first three minutes should be about the same pace each minute; then speed up on the last two minutes (as much as possible). Squat clean to thruster to jerk may be the fastest way to attack this.
1 Minute toes to bar
1 Minute Row (cal)
Foam Roll/Stick – Calves, Quads
LaX Ball – Pecs
