Monday 14th –> 19th January 2019

Ok here we go, week 2!
Building on last week with the Overhead squats and Deadlifts. Ensure you focus on moving well rather than worrying too much about how much weight is on the bar. Once we have a solid base and technique, then we can start lifting heavier. For athletes who are comfortable with these moves, there is plenty of opportunity to get some good weight on the barbell. 
Some great workouts this week, we hope you enjoy and have fun!
Make sure to tag us on your Facebook posts and Instagram stories, we really appreciate it.
 
 

Monday 14th Jan

STRENGTH:
Overhead squats 6-6-6-5-4 (first 2 sets tempo @30X1)
In total, only 1 rep more than last week. Try to increase the amount of weight from last Monday.
Aim to increase the weight each set depending on how you feel and your own OH squat mobility. The aim is to get comfortable with the bar positioning overhead and try to hit your depth on each rep. The tempo will encourage better positioning and technique.
