♀ 125-lb barbell
♂ 185-lb barbell
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today, you’ll take on a relatively short workout with a challenging load on the jerks and a bit of volume of double-unders. Choose a challenging weight that still allows for no more than one short break on each round. Better to challenge yourself with a heavier load than to go too light. A hidden element of this workout is the redundancy, specifically with the jumping demands and shoulder fatigue. To aid with this, focus on maintaining hip extension on the jerks and aggressively pushing under the barbell to lock it out and stabilize it.
