Workout of the Day

Fitness
A. 3 pause power clean
4×2; Rest as needed

Training notes:
Pause above-the-knee, mid-thigh and in receiving position
-Actually pause – the point of pausing is to really understand and own your position in space. If you don’t pause, you don’t learn.
-Rest between reps. Not touch-and-go.
-Only build in weight if your technique is very solid.

Record heaviest weight used and all weights lifted in training notes.

B. EMOM 9:
Mins 1-3: 1.1.1 clean pulls
Mins 4-6: 1.1 clean pull
Mins 7-9: 1 clean pull

Training notes:
-Increase weight as reps decrease.
-These should all be challenging but technically sound.
-Prioritize good positions off the floor and explosive vertical hip extension.
-Arms stay straight on clean pulls.

C. 10 min AMRAP:

15 box jumps, no rebound
