Mon, Sept 28th

This week we’re aiming to do Max Effort (1RM) Testing. This will give us a better idea of your strengths/weaknesses going into Individualised Strength Training. The priority lifts are: Back Squat, Press, Deadlift, Snatch, Clean & Jerk. After that, Front Squat, Overhead Squat, Pull Ups, Dips, Bench and 400m run times will be important to test. (I’m sure I’ve left something out above). You can test as many, or as little lifts as you like before the metcons this week, so you can get an idea of where you’re at. The metcons will be kept deliberately short and light so as to minimise interference to recovery.
