Movement Breakdown & Strategy
3 Bar Facing Burpees
Move efficiently but not recklessly.
Step down, jump up, quick turn-and-face the bar each time.
Use burpees to regulate heart rate—don’t sprint but stay moving.
Keep breathing controlled during these short sets.
5 Thrusters (95/65 lb, 43/30 kg)
Lightweight and fast cycling.
Aim to go unbroken every time.
Breathe at the top of the rep, not during the squat or press.
Keep the bar path tight and use strong hip drive to make the press-out easier.
Shoulder Press (Every 2:00 x 5 Sets
5/5 Deficit Split Squat (Farmers Loaded)
3 Shoulder Press)
Coaching Notes, Strategy, and Goals
Split Squat: Challenging, Unbroken Loads @ 20×1 Tempo
Shoulder Press starts @ 80%+ and build to a heavy 3 or the day
Stimulus: Absolute Strength Development / Unilateral Strength
The focus here is on structural strength work for the knees and hips, while using the superset to target our upper body overhead press progression.
RPE: 6/10 *this should be challenging, but nothing that really fully taxes the body
Key focus areas:
Tension and controlled tempos for these lifts
Controlled Descent + Fast Ascent (For both the Split Squat and the Shoulder Press
Modifications:
Traditional Split Squat or Adjust to a Step-Up for those with knee issues
Consider adjusting to a Dual or Single Dumbbell Press. A Landmine Press could be another good alternative.
Strategy (No Measure)
7 Toes-to-Bar
Midline and grip will fatigue over time, but sets are small.
Aim for unbroken or quick 4-3, 5-2 sets if needed.
Focus on tight kip swings and minimize excessive arching.
Relax the grip slightly at the top to save hands when possible.
Scaling options: hanging knee raises or toes-to-space if needed.
Pacing & Recovery Tips
Early rounds should feel smooth and repeatable—no sprinting in the first 3-4 minutes.
Breathing is key: breathe through the burpees and thrusters so you’re composed when you hit the rig.
If grip starts to fail later, quick sets on toes-to-bar will preserve rhythm without full burnout.
Push hard in the final 2-3 minutes—finish strong by speeding up cycle time slightly on each movement.
