This week’s push press will push muscular stamina. High reps, so weight won’t be as heavy as the last few times, BUT still use a weight where the last rep or two per set are a bit of a struggle
This is our last session of high hang squat cleans before we go for a new 1RM on Clean and Jerks next week (not to mention Snatch). Get 5 good heavy singles. Get comfortable at the bottom position, and make sure the torso stays upright.

Nothing ends a week better than some good ol’ strongman work! Luckily, we have a good assortment of tires to choose from. For the tire jump throughs, they are performed one of two ways. 1)The athlete jumps right into the middle of the tire and jumps right out or 2)Athlete jumps on top of tire edge, hops in the middle, hops on top of the far side edge of the tire, and hops off. Remember, the jumps mean both feet leave the ground at the same time and land at the same time. If there is any stepping up, that is considered scaled. You CAN step down and still be RX.
