Stimulus wise, for both variations, we are looking for a light barbell. A loading that we could complete 20+ repetitions unbroken on both the power snatch and the thruster, so that this workout is more about conditioning the engine, than building strength on the barbell.
BODY ARMOR
4 “Giant Sets”, Not for Time:
12 Single Arm Dumbbell Kneeling Presses, each side (Video)
:20s Superman Hold
Rest 1:00-2:00 between sets.
Athlete’s choice on dumbbell loading, but each set must be moderate enough so that all 12 reps can be completed unbroken on each side.
As we press overhead, our aim is to fire the midline and keep the rib cage cinched down.
There will be a tendency to shift the body to one side – fight the urge to and stay squared to the center.
On the supine GHD hold, if we do not have access to the equipment, modify with 20 Hollow Rocks (Video).
