January
Daily News and Notes:
|
You’ll notice some higher reps on these movements than the traditional 3-5 reps for strength. There will be a bit more of a focus on developing muscle endurance in the month of January, and the hang snatch represents an opportunity to dive headfirst into a new, highly productive movement.
You will see an E.M.O.M every week in January. We are big believers in “strategic intensity dosing” and that will be reflected across all density circuits.
Phase 1 Athletes will have the opportunity to baseline, develop or test out both their SQUAT and SWING every week.
Advanced Athletes will continue to see timed challenges offered weekly, with weekly exposure to higher rep hypertrophy options in the big lifts to train new adaptations.
SHRED will see 13 more brand new movements to classes, with a variety of complexes and challenging planes of movement. Our Shred attendance has seen a big increase, as more athletes look to focus on their aerobic capacity, caloric output, or compliment their DC routine.
OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING programming will continue the final two weeks of December theme by featuring a finishing barbell circuit at the end of each class, between 8 – 12 minutes. The circuit will always feature Oly complexes performed at high speed, in a highly challenging pace to build strength via speed, technique under fatigue, and conditioning. These circuits will be unique to OLY WEIGHTLIFTING class and feature skill building not found in any other classes.
There will also be advanced challenges at heavier load, and advanced movement development like muscle ups. What cannot be performed will be scaled for you.
MUSCLE will be centered around the front squat and the hang clean, and sleds will continue to play an important role in our hypertrophy work.
Monday
Daily News and Notes:
Today in 100 Words: We continue to expose and develop athletes in the total body snatch. Focus on a vertical pull of the barbell upwards, rather than a swing of the barbell outwards. The DB snatch is readily available for those who are not yet capable with the barbell, or those who prefer the DB. In Tier 2, we are performing an ascending and then descending pyramid of three movements and a run. Stay moving and keep your pace up, so don’t be stubborn with your usage of bands on the chin-ups! Lots of volume in a short amount of time. Advanced athletes will have one of our gnarlier P360 Benchmark Challenges for time. Go get it! :)

Tuesday
Daily News and Notes:
Today in 100 Words: The purpose of Olympic barbell complexes is to toe the blend of both strength and conditioning. While more of a conditioning option than a true strength option, the fact that you spend so much time under tension, and taking your body through both upper body, lower body, pulling and pushing overhead, will build strength in addition to contributing to a very high caloric output. Complexes are one of those protocols that touch on a little bit of everything, and even the seasoned weightlifter will get much needed speed work at submaximal. Weight selection should be challenging, but repeatable given you will only have roughly 45 seconds rest until you are up again. Tier 2 should be performed at lighter weight, and fast pace. Full ROM on your push-ups! Even if it takes you a little longer.

Daily News and Notes:
Today in 100 Words: Continue to pay attention to your squat weight and challenge yourself accordingly. Attempt to get better at these every week! Advanced athletes will have a front squat/back squat complex that should prove quite challenging and beneficial to max out motor recruitment. The curtsy lunge is an excellent movement that takes us through hip extension, abduction and external rotation. Make sure you take a big stride back and to the side. The “to the side” portion is the key, here. Go relatively light on these.

Daily News and Notes:
Today in 100 Words: We have a descending 10:1 format today featuring three challenging movements. The focus should be on the lighter side in terms of load, and the higher side in terms of intensity. We want to push pace and keep our rest to a minimum. Do not neglect mechanics. “Head through” on every rep of the jerk or press. Finish with a you-me pace on the 300m repeats with your partner.

Daily New and Notes:
Today in 100 Words: 4R deadlifts today. Advanced athletes will have the opportunity to go higher rep under load to focus more on functional muscle building. Take your time on the first tier as both movements will be taxing and there is no rush. When you get to Tier 2, you and your barbell partners will perform a team circuit rotating on the A person for the duration of the class. If you do not have three to a barbell, find teams of 3 amongst yourself.
