Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to mix in static holds with our training.  Spending time under tension forces the body to really work through each exercise right down to the hard to train stabilizers.  Also, it is a tremendous mental exercise in "making friends with fatigue".  Force yourself in a uncomfortable place and persevere and you come out stronger.

1 minute OH static hold
30 second L/R snatch (max reps)

1 minute static goblet hold
30 second L/R front squat

5 Rounds

20 floor chest press
20 seated shoulder press
20 lunges
20 dips
20 cleans


Cool down, have a nice day..  El Rey always..

Warm up with joint mobility, dynamic movement and foam roller.  Simple sequence today.  Row 2000 meters.. Turkish get ups.  Simply set your timer and go.  I like to get as many in a row as I can with one arm before I switch to singles. 15-20 minutes with no rest usually gets it done.  Row 2000 meters, Throw in some more flexibility movements at the end, and call it a day.

splits, back bridges, head and hand stands, wall walks, and gymnastic movements


Cool down, have a nice day..  El Rey always..
