1. Back Squat
work up to a 1 rep max
2. Front Squats
3 x 10, across
3. RDL
3 x 8-12 Romanian Dead Lifts, across - watch the demo video here.
4. 4 rounds of:
15 Weighted Abmat Sit ups 70/50 - anchored feet, keep weight high on chest throughout ROM.
12 Strict Toes to Bar - no swing, no kip, control the negative.
9 Second L-Sit
5. Split Practice
Spend 8 minutes (4/side) working towards a split.
6. Recovery Row
7 min easy Row - no straps, no monitor
 |
| If you got it - 4 minutes per side. |
 |
| If you don't got it - it's still 4 mins per side, but... Modify by putting 2 abmats on boxes. Attempt to square up hips and lift your torso. Do as I say, not as I do. |
First time with the RDL. What type of % should we be looking at of our regular DL?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the programming. Looking fwd to it.
These splits are going to be ugly.
No %. That is why there is a rep range of 8-12. Warm up by climbing up in weight for a few sets of 4-6 and you should get a good idea of what to use for your working sets
DeleteI can't wait to do this tomorrow! I'm also curious as to what % we should use on the RDL's and the Front Squats?
ReplyDeleteHad lots of practice working on splits today at the gymnastics cert, so tomorrow will be fun!
%age on the Front Squats?
ReplyDeleteForgot to add, what's rest in between lifts?
ReplyDeleteAnd rest between sets for RDLs and FS?
lots of % questions...i am going to answer with my assumption that all movement should be using a heavy weight that you can complete all sets with the same weight...
ReplyDelete1. if Ben says "climbing" it means you are working up in weight
2. normally he will say "across" or some other indicator that the sets are to be done with the same load...
....so go heavy :) but complete sets with the same weight...dont break form :)
Cheryl is right.
DeleteIf there isn't a % posted, it is supposed to be as heavy as you can get. Across means the same weight for all sets, and climbing means add weight each set.
Thanks guys, that helped me out on the % question....but i'm also wondering if we should do this all in one session, or should we split it up into an a.m. and p.m. session?
ReplyDeleteCode-man! Morning and Evening. That way you can go balls to the wall on all of it. Hold nothing back! I did all the heavy stuff this morning, then the core work, splits, and recovery row this evening.
Delete% stuff - 3X10 is usually around 70-80% of your 1RM. Usually. Some day are better than others, just like everything else. Today after the Back Squat, I had to use 70%. Only way I could get it done.
If it doesn't say "session 1" and "session 2" it should all be done in one training session. Having said that, if time is an issue do what you need to do.
DeleteI did it all in one session ... Took me almost 2 hours including warn up (3 xs cf warmup)
ReplyDelete1. Backsquat( high bar standards) 235
2. Front squats 155 across
3. RDL - 135 across will send video want to make sure I did these right
4. Sit ups with 55# DB( we don't have 50#) ; ttb 12,6/6,6/6,6/6; l-sits on rings ( my wheelhouse for sure ) .. Spent the most time on ttb... Held the negative .... Nice burn!
5. Surprised myself with this! Luckily had a former child gymnast do this with me... She showed me a good way to ease into it and that really helped.... I'll post a video later :)
6. Recovery row- this is my favorite part!

Great programming Ben, I am very excited about following your program for the next 12 months! I realize I am a month behind schedule, but I don't want to miss the Ha-uge portion, I need it!
So, a buddy and I started this programming back in January & started here. Being that it's in the heat of the open, my met cons definitely aren't what they should be. Whatever, I wasn't making regionals this year and strength was the biggest goat so this is where we started. We intend on working through this phase, the oly phase, and the kill the goat phase and then hop back on board with the daily programing after the games in July & perhaps make a run at regionals in 2014, we'll see where the determination gets us. I know there are lot of people out there with the same goal, but I'm not going to let that stop me from busting my butt and doing everything I can to make it to the next level. So, I'm going to log the next few months from behind. Not sure what I am accomplishing by posting my time to the comments, but I want to be part of this. You have an amazing program, Ben, and I'm stoked to be apart of it. Hopefully this helps SEO or something, cheers mate!
