Today’s workout pairs grunt work with barbell stamina. The barbell movement in this workout increases in technical difficulty to add a unique challenge. As you become more tired, can you maintain your technique to power through the workout? The loading of the barbell should feel moderate and allow you to complete the shoulder presses in 4 sets or less. The incorporation of the hips in both the push press and push jerk should make the loading feel easier. Choose a load that allows you to perform the movements as written and practice the more technically demanding exercises. Work hard and have fun.

Today’s workout is a bit off the beaten path and will definitely get you out of your comfort zone. This workout is a true expression of coordination, agility, accuracy, and balance (the neurological skills in the 10 general physical skills). Without these skills, learning new movements and connecting the dots becomes very difficult. For most, expect this workout to be on the slower, less-intense side of fitness — this is OK. Today is a great day to practice skills and challenge yourself with new movements. Less-experienced athletes should reduce the difficulty of each movement, but maintain the movement function to the best of their ability (e.g., scale the handstand walk to a bear crawl). Have fun today!
