Coaching Tips: The load should be such that you can’t do the first round unbroken (maybe 2-3 sets). Make sure those shoulder/strict presses are legit and there is no hip/leg involvement. Keep the core tight! Go hard on the sprints, they are not supposed to be ‘jogs’. The push presses and jerks may be broken up due to fatigue/intensity, but not due to strength.
Optional ‘Cash Out’: 30s plank, 25 cal row, 5 min.
