Burgener warm-up

Max reps hspu after 3 min rest

WOD: Tabata on a treadmill

Set a treadmill at 12% grade... and the same tabata rules apply. 20 seconds of work with 10 seconds of rest for 4minutes. The speed you should run on the tread mill should be your mile split for a 5k. So if I run a 24min 5k, that is an 8min mile pace (approx).

If you don't have access to a treadmill... well... bad news... Bottom tabata squats for you.

*we eliminate the strength of the legs in the first portion of the workout to make the push press that much more difficult for the shoulders. Also, this requires one to be EFFICIENT in the movement to move maximum loads.

Eat well and get rest.

Rest Day...for some.

Three Elements of Work Capacity:

1. Capacity- The total amount of energy available to perform work.
2. Power- Amount of energy that can be produced per unit of time.
3. Efficiency- Optimal use of the energy available.


The Formula:

W(work) = [F(force) * D(distance)]/Time


Whats it all mean?

The maximum amount of work a person can do during a physical activity, as a function of intensity and duration of workload AND the ability to tolerate a high workload and recover sufficiently for the next workload (workout).

DAY 1

Ok guys and gals, here is the low down on where this programming is going to be headed for the next few weeks/months. With the 2009 games behind us and the 2010 games ahead, one thing has come to light... Strength counts. The new programming posted here will begin to take on the form of a power-lifting/Olympic-lifting routine along with some sprints... and the occasional met-con for good measure. We need to get stronger across the board, and see where that takes us. The goals for everyone should be... Bodyweight shoulder press, 2x bodyweight back squat, 2.5x bodyweight deadlift, bodyweight snatch, and 1.5x bodweight clean&jerk. Use these as guidance, and if you are already there on some... well... Push em' higher.

Day 1
