Skill
5 sets of 5 back squats
Use ~70% of your max

On the last set, feel free to go for a max set. You can use the number of reps you get to calculate a theoretical max using the charts posted in the gym. Ask your coach if you aren’t sure how!

We’re working through one more 4-week cycle of back squat on Mondays and presses on Tuesdays.

Workout of the Day
5 rounds for time:
12 deadlifts
9 hang power cleans
6 push jerks

15 minute time cap

Happy Birthday, Lilli! Her choice of a birthday workout is a classic benchmark, and a very tough all-barbell challenge. If you think you’ll get to a point where you have to break up the push jerks into more than two sets, you’ve definitely gone too heavy. The same goes for the hang power cleans.
