Legs and Shoulders … Oh My!

/in /by

I always forget how much weighted lunge steps work the upper-hamstring and lower-glutes. Holy crap, there was a lot of gimping this morning at the box … and lots of bitching at Coach Craig about it :).

No matter, we still got after it and had a damn good time.

Strength
Smolov, Jr.
Week 2, Day 2
Shoulder Press
7x 5 @ 75% +/- 5 lb.

Shoulders overly worked?
No problem … we have this for you today as a respite from the Smolov cycle:
High Bar Back Squats
6x 4 @60%-65%

Conditioning
2x
4 Minute AMRAP
6 Deadlifts 135 lb./95 lb.
6 Box Jumps 24”/20”
Rest 90 seconds

After round 3:
100 Double Unders for time (300 singles is the modification)

Aw yeah, nothing like a DL/BJ combo (when the DL weights aren’t stupidly heavy)!

Now to rest our legs for a day or two …
