“Don’t tell me who you are. Tell me what you are.” When we are asked “who” we are, we default to our past. We define ourselves by our resumes. Although our past may give us insight of where we’ve been, it cannot be what defines us… for it’s the past. When the question however asks “what” we are, we tend to give a different answer. We describe who we *really* are. It’s one of character, values and beliefs. Will we be defined by who we’ve been in the past, or by what we stand for today? Let character be our loudest statement.
Power Snatch (Power Snatch
For Total Load:
15-12-9 Unbroken Power Snatches
Rest 2 Minutes Between Sets
)
– The goal here is to perform big sets of touch and go snatches under fatigue. We will not be fully recovered after 2 minutes of rest so this is great training for barbell cycling within workouts. – Athletes can use the same weight across all sets or build. – Athletes must complete each set unbroken to be considered “Rx.” – Aim to start around 50-55% of your 1RM power snatch.
– Score: Enter weight used for your set of 9 reps
WARM UP
With An Empty Barbell:
5 Snatch Grip Deadlifts
5 Snatch Grip High Pulls
5 Muscle Snatches
5 Snatch Grip Push Jerks (From Back Rack)
5 Power Snatches With A Light Weight…

500/450 Meter Bike Erg
3 Rope Climbs (15ft.)
500/450 Meter Bike Erg
Time Cap: 25 Minutes
– Overview: In this longer aerobic based workout, athletes will need to move at a sustainable pace right from the start. Lungs and upper body fatigue will be the biggest factors in this workout.
– Power Snatch: Loading should not exceed 55% of your 1RM power snatch. Reps should take 1:00 or less to complete each round.
– Bike: The 500/450m should take 1:30 or less to complete. – Rope Climbs: Reps should be completed in 1:30 or less each round.
– Score: Total time. If capped, add 1s for every incomplete rep (100m = 1 Rep).
– With the barbell being on the lighter side today, let’s aim to complete these reps in 1-2 sets each round. – We can use the bike as a recovery in this workout but we should still aim to complete the 500/450m in 1:30 or less. – The rope climbs should take 1:30 or less. Keep an eye on the clock and try to rest no longer than 20s between reps.

“You make a living with what you get. You make a life with what you give.” – Winston Churchill Think back to a time in your life when you came in clutch for someone. One where your actions made a significant impact on someone’s life. Maybe it was a time where you showed up for a friend in a time of need. But you didn’t just show up… you went above and beyond. Not because of some expected return, but because you believed it was the right thing to do. You genuinely cared. Think back to that day, and how that made you feel when you saw your impact. Think back to how it felt to know you made a difference. It felt good, didn’t it. Really, damn, good. Science has shown us that one of the most powerful emotions we can feel, via serotonin, is released in mass at these moments. But what is even more interesting, is that it’s literally contagious. Think back to the last time you saw *someone else* doing something generous. Maybe it was as simple as holding the door open at the store for an elderly customer. Think back to that… How did you feel, witnessing that? Did it make you feel more generous? If generosity is contagious, it just needs to be started. Let it be us. Be the change we want to see in this world.

– Overview: This is a repeat from 12/12/22. In this shorter hero workout, athletes should aim to complete each round in roughly the same amount of time. – Barbell Loading: Should not exceed 65% of your 1RM jerk. Athletes should be able to complete the 6 push jerks unbroken every round.
– Score: Total time it takes to complete the workout.
– The traditional way to break up “DT” is to do 11 deads, rest, 1 dead into 8 hang power cleans, rest, then do 1 hang power clean into 6 unbroken push jerks.
– Often times, athletes will find themselves needing to break up the push jerks into 2 sets. This is typically not due to the push jerks being too heavy, but instead because the hang power cleans have tired them out.
– If needed, let’s stick to the deadlift strategy of doing 2 sets (11-1), then break the hang power cleans into three sets (5-3-1) to be able to hold onto the push jerks.
– Let’s keep the focus on holding onto the push jerks for all 6 reps each round. If we need to break something, have it be the hang power cleans or the deadlifts first.

“Give more. Give what you didn’t get. Love more. Drop the old story.” We often hold onto the past. And we all have felt ourselves do it. Sometimes they are worn as scars, sometimes like trophies. It’s not uncommon to use past events as a chip on your shoulder. “They didn’t believe in me”. All of those are potent motivators. But they only last so long, as they are fleeting and weaker forms of ammunition. When we “fight against” something, such as something in the past, we will only go so far. When we “fight for” something, it’s different. Its purpose and meaning go beyond our singular life, transcending to something far bigger. This is where you can move mountains. Do you hold onto something from the past? Can we reframe the mental dialogue?

400 Meter Row
5-4-3-2-1 Rope Climbs (15ft.)
Time Cap: 30 Minutes
– Overview: In this longer aerobic workout, athletes are encouraged to move at a sustainable pace throughout. Breaking up the push-ups and pacing out the rope climbs so that there are no missed reps will be key things to consider here.
– Push-Ups: Reps should be completed in sets of 5 or more in 1:00 or less.
– Sit-Ups: Reps should be completed in 1:00 or less.
– Row: Each 400m row should take 2:15 or less to complete.
– Rope Climbs: Athletes should be able to perform a rope climb every 30s within each round of this workout (2:30-2:00-1:30-1:00-30s).
– Score: Total time. If capped add 1s for every incomplete rep. 100m = 1 Rep.
– Let’s try to complete the push-ups in sets of 5 or more. The smaller the set, the quicker the break should be. Break these right from the start if you know you will need breaks in the later rounds. – Settle into a steady pace on the sit-ups. Just try to stay moving here. – Run at a pace that is going to allow you to come in and get right to work on the rope climbs. – Be methodical about your rope climbs. Focus on strong foot clamps and use the clock to help time out your breaks between reps to help keep you moving.

“If you fight for your limitations, you get to keep them.” – Jim Kwik Our harshest critic is in between our ears. We’ve all been there… telling ourselves we suck. That we’re simply not good enough. Too old, too young, not good looking enough, not smart enough. Each time we tell ourselves these things, we add one more vote to become them. The mind has this incredible power to bring into this world whatever we fixate on. Yet what can be the harshest critic, can be the most powerful ally. Let’s leverage those thoughts to our best advantage.

“If failure is not an option, neither is success.” We fear the one who is willing to lose it all. The one who is willing to play full out with no reserves. The one who swings for the fences. That’s a dangerous person. Dangerous enough… to accomplish something great. We all have a comfort zone. A status quo. It’s warm, cozy, and familiar. But it’s a box, with a ceiling and walls that we can see and touch. It’s a world that cannot grow further than what it’s already grown to. If we want to grow, we have to climb out of that world into the unknown. To face that chance that we may fall flat on our face, because we’re walking in new ground. Yet, as much as a “swing and a miss” may sting a bit, there’s something far worse. Worse than any of that is the pain of knowing that we didn’t try. Life is so short. There’s no time to bunt. Let’s swing for the fences.

– Overview: In this interval style workout, athletes will begin each round with a 400m run (Row) and calories on the bike. Once the run (row) and bike are completed, they’ll spend the remaining time completing as many snatches as they can. The major goal here to complete roughly the same number of snatches on the barbell each AMRAP.
– Run: (ROW) Should be completed in 2:00 or less.
– Bike: In the first AMRAP the bike should be completed in 1:30 or less. In the second AMRAP the bike should be completed in 1:15 or less. In the last AMRAP the bike should be completed in 1:00 or less. – Power Snatches: The final barbell should not exceed 65% of your 1RM power snatch. Athletes should be able to complete touch and go sets in the first 2 AMRAPs. – Score: Enter snatch reps completed within each AMRAP.
– Run at a faster pace that is still going to allow you to push the bike that follows. – We want to get at least 30 seconds on the barbell each AMRAP. Let’s push and/or pace the bike in a way that allows us to get that 30 seconds or more on the barbell. – In the first AMRAP let’s aim to complete sets of 5 or more on the barbell. In the second AMRAP, let’s aim to complete sets of 3 or more. In the last AMRAP, singles are a great option. – Let’s make it our goal to complete roughly the same number of reps on the barbell each AMRAP.
