POWER | WEEK 45 | 10/31/2021
The new SP logging system is coming soon! Once it is here you will find all of your favorite weekly accessory programs and Street Parking Extra Programs under "Extra Programs" and put together as series that you can follow at your own pace!
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
GENERAL BARBELL WARM UP
WORKOUT
Tempo Front Squats
4 Sets of 4 Reps
COACHES NOTES
Take about 12 minutes to complete this. So one set every 3 minutes or so. Tempo is TOUGH so you'll likely need to go lighter on this one. Ideally, you will stay at the same weight across all 4 sets but you're allowed one adjustment in case you went too heavy or too light!
--- THE TEMPO IS 33X1 ---
This means lower for 3 seconds, active hold in the bottom for a full 3 seconds, drive hard back up to standing, pause for one second at the top and repeat for the remaining reps.
MOVEMENT DESCRIPTION
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.
Every 3 Minutes for 15 Minutes
5 Bench Press
12 Bench Jump Overs
These should be heavy, unbroken sets. You can keep the load the same or add load between sets.
COACHES NOTES
All 5 sets of the bench should be a challenge. Start somewhere around 80% and either keep it the same or add a small amount of load each time.
MOVEMENT DESCRIPTIONS
Lying face up on the bench, pull the bar from the rack out over your chest so your arms are vertical. Push your feet down into the floor. Draw your low back, shoulders and the back of your head down into the bench. Lower the bar straight down with control until it touches your chest an inch or two above the sternum. Keep your elbows about 45 degrees from your torso, wrists straight. Press the bar all the way back up until your arms are straight to complete the rep.
The bench jump overs are just like they sound. Two foot take off and two foot landing, jump over the bench. Then, turn and jump over again. Each jump is one rep.
