OLY | WEEK 31 | 07/25/2021
Street Parking OLY is posted once a week - on Sunday. These workouts are for those interested in adding in some additional work going heavy and working technique in the Olympic lifts. Add this in wherever makes sense for your schedule.
We typically suggest doing this workout BEFORE the regular programmed workout that day if doing both in one session. You can find suggestions on which days each week it will fit in best on the descriptions in Program A, B, and C on Wodify and the Members Only Website!
WARM UP
BARBELL CLEAN WARM UP
WORKOUT
Tall Clean
3 Sets of 5 Reps (Lightly Building)
COACHES NOTES
This movement will REALLY focus on your ability to pull under the bar quickly. Start super light for first set - probably the empty bar and only add as you are able to keep speed and use no assistance from the legs and hips.
TALL CLEAN
Start with the bar at the hang position. With no dip and drive from the hips and knees you will SHRUG and immediately pull under into the front squat. You are going to have to be FAST with the lower body and feet. And FAST with the elbows coming around and through.
On a 20 minute clock, perform 7 sets of:
Clean Pull + Clean
(Each set is just a single rep of the complex: 1 Clean Pull + 1 Full Clean)
COACHES NOTES
To be performed on a 20 min clock. Warm up reps do not count. All 7 sets should be challenging but not "max" effort. Goal is going heavy while working technique.
CLEAN PULL + CLEAN
Set up for your clean with the bar on the ground. Heels are down, hands outside of the legs, chest up, bar close, arms straight, knees bent, hips a bit higher than knees, chest higher than hips.
Pull from the ground in CONTROL and once past the knees pick up speed. Keep the heels down as you lift and bring the chest vertical and then explode through the hips and shrug to start to make the bar weightless. Shoulders should be BEHIND the bar before you start to shrug and extend! Focus on pulling the bar into the body throughout.
Lower back to the ground and use the same technique for the first part of your clean. Only difference is that you will pull under into a front squat position after the shrug to finish the full clean.
Make sure you pull under fast and land in a solid front squat position with the heels down, knees out, chest up, butt lower than knees, belly tight, elbows high, bar on the shoulders. Stand by leading with the elbows, driving through the heels, and pushing the knees out to complete.
3 Min AMRAP
(As Many Reps as Possible in 3 Min)
Squat Clean Singles
Goal: 20+
Score: You will enter weight used. Enter number of reps completed in the comments.
COACHES NOTES
In 3 min you will do as many SINGLES - must be dropped or lowered with a complete re-set for each new rep.
Choose a weight that will allow you to get roughly 7 per minute - or a little bit faster than 1 every 10 seconds. Focus on technique - a good set up - and good catch on each rep.
