Focus

– Macro: Endurance and stamina

– Expect to see more workouts that challenge your ability to maintain a sustainable effort across longer durations. This is the exact opposite of the month of March.

– We will also test Kelly, Andi, and Fight Gone Bad.

Warm-up (No Measure)

On a 5:00 clock:

:40 easy row

:20 hard row

– No rest between changes in pace.

3 sets:

7 plate squats

7 hanging knee raises

:20 PVC front squat hold

3 sets:

3 knees-to-elbows

5 front squats

– Build in load to your first working set.
– Use the 5-minute clock to elevate your heart rate and get a little out of breath.

– Dial in your squat technique through the next 3 sets, holding for 20 seconds at the bottom of the PVC front squat hold.

– In the final 3 sets, increase the load until you reach your workout weight.

250407 (Time)

21-18-15-12-9 reps for time of:

Knees-to-elbows

Front squats (75/115 lb)
Stimulus & Goals

– 12:00-15:00, advanced athletes may go faster.

– Knees-to-elbows and front squats each in 2 sets or less per round.

– Designed to tax and strengthen the midline.

Strategy

– This is a good workout to test your capacity with unbroken sets. Aim to give each set a fair push and try to go unbroken.

– The front squats may get challenging but aim to keep the barbell on your shoulders and simply slow your pace to keep moving.

Modifications

Knees-to-elbows | Reps, hanging knee raises, sit-ups

Front squats | Load, reps

Deadlift (Strength II
Shoulder press
5-5-5-5-5+)

– Welcome to week one of the next 2025 Strength 2 lifting cycle where we will focus on the shoulder press.

– Use the same load for sets 4 and 5, but go for more than 5 reps in that final set without pushing to failure.

– Rest as needed between sets.

Accessory – I (5 Rounds for weight)

5 sets for completion:

Sandbag carry (100/150 lb) (100 ft)

10 heavy Russian kettlebell swings

– Rest 1:00 between sets.
– This should feel like a mini workout that elevates the heart rate with relatively heavy loads; push yourself to move quickly.

– Use a sandbag carry load that gets challenging by the end of the 100 feet, but can always be done unbroken.

– Use a heavier-than-usual kettlebell load for the swings.

– Swing the kettlebell to anywhere around shoulder height.

Stretching (Checkmark)

1 set:

1:00 foam roll quads

1:00 couch stretch/side
