Intended Stimulus

This is not a max day .

This is a consistency and positioning day .

The goal is to:

Reinforce repeatable technique at moderate-heavy loads

Build confidence receiving the bar consistently

Establish a baseline for the rest of the cycle

You should finish today feeling confident, not exhausted.

How Today Should Feel

70–75% should feel smooth and fast

80–85% should require focus and intent

90% should feel heavy but technically sound

If positions fall apart, reduce load and continue with quality reps.

Coaching Notes

Treat every rep as a single — reset each time.

Finish the pull before moving under the bar.

Prioritize balance and bar path over speed.

Misses should come from commitment, not rushed technique.

Goal of Week 1

Build confidence and consistency so heavier weeks can be productive.

Clean reps now lead to better numbers later.

Daily Conditioning W.O.D. – 10 Minutes (AMRAP – Rounds and Reps)

As Many Rounds and Reps as Possible in 10 Minutes of…

15 Hanging Strict Leg Raises

:30 Front Elbow Plank Hold

15 V – Ups

:30 Front Elbow Plank Hold

This is a strict midline stamina workout focused on controlled core strength rather than speed or conditioning.

The strict hanging leg raises demand hip flexor and lower-ab strength, while the plank holds remove any opportunity to fully recover. The V-ups keep tension high and breathing elevated.

The goal is continuous movement with strict control , not rushing through reps.

How This Should Feel

Core fatigue builds early and continues to accumulate

Grip and shoulders become secondary limiters from hanging work

Later rounds become a test of maintaining quality positions under fatigue

You should be moving steadily with minimal standing rest.

Movement Notes

Hanging Strict Leg Raises

No kipping or swinging

Control the descent every rep

Keep shoulders active while hanging

Legs just above waist level

Front Elbow Plank

Straight line from shoulders to heels

Glutes and abs engaged the entire hold

Avoid sagging hips or piking

V-Ups

Smooth, controlled reps

Full extension at the bottom

Stay braced to protect the lower back

Feet and hands do not need to touch the ground

Big Picture

Strict core strength

Hanging midline control

Postural endurance under fatigue

Quality reps matter more than speed today.
