August Training Focus

I know, I know.. it’s August 5th. Better late than never, right??

You may be have noticed some different ways to press and squat in the month of July. It’s been unique and different! The reasons behind this is to expose you all to different ways we can Strict Press and Front Squat as we continue to stick to those high reps at light to moderate weight.

For August, we finish up that pesky tempo work and transition into some 1 + 1/2 rep assignments! We will continue to superset each strength day with some beautiful accessory work as well.

Our Olympic cycle switches gears from Snatch to Power Clean this month. We will test our 1 rep (today!), continue the 2 day/week skill work, and will retest at the end of the month. If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times: LET’S LIFT SOME WEIGHT!!

(Have I said that?)

You all have been crushing this cycle so far. Keep trusting the process!
