We started today with thick bar clean and jerks. Honestly, it's one of the top five ways to start a man's day. The only thing better in Frank's opinion, (Frank is the tall, gangly fella who makes fart noises in the video frequently) would be to start the day be drawing an unusually large penis on the whiteboard for everyones viewing pleasure. But he trains for something else:) Not that there's anything wrong with that... Back to the training. After that, repetition effort bench pressing followed by repetition effort pullups. Talk about upper body pump! I gots my swole on, big time. Finally, we got out the farmers bars for some carry's for distance. Simple day, hard work, good times.
1.) Thick bar clean & jerk 10x1
2a.) Bench press bodyweight 3-5 x max reps
2b.) Pullups 3-5 x max reps
3.) Farmer's carries 3-5 x max distance
-we used a moderate 155lbs on each handle, as we are trying to increase conditioning a little more, bigger weight to come. We all want to be the first to carry 315 per hand!
Enjoy the video, I know not all of the lifts have perfect form, that's why we watch, coach, correct and continue. It's when you don't know the faults, or worse, ignore the fault's and fail to correct them that present's a problem.
Train to win,
Matt
