Post Back Squat Loads and Time For Each Workout Round to Comments
Today marks the beginning of a new strength cycle, based on the Westside Conjugate System. We will be discussing the methodology in more detail in the coming weeks. For the Back Squat, take 12-15 minutes to warm up and set a 1RM for the day. You should work up to the heaviest weight that you know you can get. Do your best to NOT fail on any reps. It’s ok to leave something in the tank for next time.
In the conditioning workout note that each round has 3 “mini” rounds. Rest 2 minutes between each “main” round. Perform the Situp finisher when you’ve cooled down from the conditioning workout. It is not done for time or to failure.
ENDURANCE WORKOUT tonight at 6pm with Coach Allison!

1-arm KB Push Press
3-3-3-max reps-max reps-max reps
–Rest–
For Time:
150 KB Swings (70/52)

When you can no longer swing make note of the number, set down the bell and begin your run. Begin your swings again and make note of the consecutive swings. When you reach failure, start your second run. Etc.
Post KB Push Press Loads and Workout Time and Number of KB Swing Sets to Comments
For the strength segment, perform sets of 3 reps per arm with a KB…one arm at a time. You can use a different load for each arm. Do not hold a KB in the non-working hand…this will make you really have to tighten your core as you perform your reps. Sets 4 through 6 are for max reps on each arm. Just don’t get sloppy.
For the conditioning workout, RXd is with Russian Swings. If you cannot complete RXd, use the heaviest KB you can handle. Generally, you should be doing somewhere between 3 and 5 sets of swings. If you can’t do that, you’re load is too heavy.
ENDURANCE WORKOUT this morning at 9am with Coach Paul!
In 24 minutes
10m broad jumps immediately followed by 100m sprint; recovery run (walk and/or run backwards) to start; goal is for even (within 2 to 3 seconds) splits
