** CFNH IS OPEN NORMAL HOURS TODAY, PLEASE TAKE CARE AND STAY SAFE COMMUTING! **
Warm-up Drills
I. Row 45/35kcal
II. 2-3 Rounds of
5 x Power Snatch
5 x Snatch Balance Drill
(w/ as deep a receiving position as mobility permits)
5 x Overhead Squat
10 x Hollow Rocks
10 x PVC Passthroughs
III. Mobility & Yoga Poses
Notes:
- Special Emphasis on PVC Passthroughs as an assessment for Overhead Mobility;
- Follow with lacrosse ball/wall drills and re-test for efficacy.
- Additional cueing on foot movement and positions from the jump to receiving position and relationship/similarity to stance width with the Overhead Squat and Snatch Balance exercises.
Impact/Focus: Overhead Squat
Warm-up as needed before working through the following sets/reps; see notes below to determine whether climbing weight and what range of loads to use are most appropriate on the day’s training.
Every 2:00 x 5 Rounds of
Overhead Squat x 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Notes:
- Experienced athletes may execute training at Rx+ today via climbing weight across sets and reps with working weights beginning at 75-80%.
- The Rx approach today will be sets and reps at the same challenging weight across.
- Foundations development will emphasize strength development for the Squat basics first and foremost before approaching the Overhead component and staying on the lighter side until confidence and a baseline of work capacity with the movement have been practiced and refined.
- The Snatch Balance Drill utilized in the warm-up sequence is valuable for developing confidence and ability to safely take the bar from the rack and set-up for the Overhead Squat (Power or Full receiving position).
