Notes From Michele:
Jan Kozak, our newest addition to the team at Deka Comp, gave us this one. Kozak has a love for barbell cycling and here are some of his notes:
Pulling, cleaning, squatting — all the barbell fun in one good, clean rodeo. Athletes should attempt to go unbroken on the bar throughout, but it’s likely many will break the reps up late in the workout.
Fast in this triplet means efficient. You can’t rush this load if you struggle to have control over the basic elements of each movement: Bar path, upper-back engagement, and for the cleans, proper turnover mechanics. To set yourself up for success, move cleanly on the deadlifts (pun intended), be snappy when receiving the bar in the cleans, and keep your weight in your heels on the front squats.
Intermediate option:
7 rounds for time:
7 deadlifts
7 hang power cleans
7 front squats
♀ 75 lb
♂ 115 lb
Intermediate athletes should focus on moving through the hang power cleans as efficiently as possible.
Beginner option:
7 rounds for time:
7 deadlifts
7 hang power cleans
7 front squats
♀ 45 lb
♂ 65 lb
Beginners should focus on the setup position in the deadlift. Rather than aiming for unbroken reps, take strategic breaks to reset. A strategy could be to drop the bar on the sixth deadlift, then perform the last rep with the plan to go straight into the hang power cleans. Focus on a big jump and shrug in the hang power cleans — break around reps 4 or 5 if needed. Go for unbroken front squats if possible.

Guest Programmer – Rob Lawson
April 30-May 12, 2024
Every minute on the minute for 20 minutes:
Minutes 1-5, use a light weight to complete:
1 snatch pull
1 hang power snatch
1 overhead squat
Minutes 6-10, use a light weight to complete:
1 snatch pull
1 low-hang snatch
Minutes 11-20, increase the load if movement is sound and complete:
1 snatch pull
1 squat snatch
Post takeaways and loads to comments.
Scaling:
The goal today is to build confidence in the snatch.
Every minute starts with a snatch pull to practice:
- A solid setup position.
- Hips and shoulders rising at the same time.
- Reaching full hip and knee extension before shrugging.
In minutes 1-5, concentrate on full hip extension. We are receiving the barbell high in the power snatch position (as opposed to the squat snatch), and then practicing a deeper receiving position with the overhead squat. The goal is for the skills of this complex to transfer over to the later minutes in this workout.
In minutes 6-10, start from the low hang and try to receive the bar in a squat. We may add a little weight, but stick to the same weight for the full 5 minutes; the opportunity to increase weight will come in the next 10 minutes. Focus on being patient, keeping the chest/shoulders on top of the bar, and jumping before using the arms to pull under.
In minutes 11-20, snatch from the floor. Focus on a sound setup position, and hips and shoulders rising at the same time before accelerating and extending the hips when the bar reaches mid-thigh — patience will be necessary to stay over the bar to reach this position. All the coaching points and practice from the previous work comes together to finish with a full squat snatch.
If you’re moving well, add weight through the last 10 minutes, but the goal is to have no missed lifts. Do not sacrifice form for load.

♂ 155 lb and 225 lb
Scaling:
Today, we have two sprint-style chippers with rest in between. For the first chipper, the load of the barbell should feel light to moderate, allowing you to do touch-and-go reps. On the second chipper, the load should be considerably heavier with most athletes doing singles on the barbell. Don’t be surprised if the pull-ups and bar muscle-ups feel more challenging coming off the squat cleans. Modify the pull-ups to jumping or assisted pull-ups, and the bar muscle-ups to jumping bar muscle-ups or pull-ups. We want to ride the line of keeping the foot on the gas, but not blowing up on the gymnastics movements. Trust yourself and let’s see what you’ve got!
