POWER | WEEK 20 | 05/09/2021

STREET PARKING POWER - Ongoing program designed to build strength through emphasis on major lifts like Back Squat, Front Squat, Deadlift, Shoulder Press and Bench Press.

This may also include assistance exercises to support good mechanics and healthy tissue.

Typically we suggest adding this in before the regular daily workout if performing them on the same day. Days in which this workout will fit in best can be found on the daily program write ups!


WARM UP
SQUAT WARM UP
PULL UP WARM UP

WORKOUT

Every 3 Min for 15 Min (5 Sets Total)

3 Front Squats

COACHES NOTES
Take at least 3 warm up sets to build up to your working weight on the front squats.

These should be heavy but not so heavy that your core collapses, elbows drop or back rounds. Make sure you maintain correct form on every rep!!

These should be heavy but not so heavy that your core collapses, elbows drop or back rounds. Make sure you maintain correct form on every rep!!

For front squats, make sure the bar is resting on the shoulders with a loose fingertip grip and elbows high! Keep the chest up, but do not overextend the back. Keep the belly tight!

Reach the butt back and down trying to keep the elbows and chest up as you descend. Drive the knees out and keep the heels down throughout. The bottom position should be where the butt is lower than the top of the knee. Do not collapse in this position. Do not go so low that the back starts to round.

To stand, lead with the chest and elbows - keeping the bar on the shoulder and not out in front. Stand fully for each rep.


60 Strict Pull Ups
Completed in as few sets as possible.

COACHES NOTES
Customize appropriately and rest enough between sets so that you can perform sets of at least 5 reps the whole way. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes.

So we want to keep these pull ups strict. If you are unable to perform 12 sets of 5 pull ups, no problem! Just use a band, put the bar in a rack and do supine rows, do trx/ring rows, or even bent over rows.

If you choose bent rows, they should be heavy but not necessitate any action or momentum from the hips. If you are feeling to much stress in the lower back, try single arm bent rows with the other hand and knee planted on a bench or box.
