Explosive Strength Training
Warmed up with some light DB Snatches and DB Swings, then went to work:
- Thrusters
- 5 x 3 x 95lb
- Barbell Punch Press
- 5 x 3/side x 75lb
- Complex Pair - repeat 4x
- Side-to-side Pullups x 4/side
- Explosive Pullups x 8
- DB Lunges x 4/side x 60lb
- Lunge Jumps x 8
- Finisher: DB Swings
- 3 x 15 x 75lb
Total time: 45 min. I had to scale back the weight on the thrusters because I couldn’t get the movement connected and explosive when I went heavy. The transition from the front squat portion of the thruster to the overhead press is a lot easier with light weight because my wrists can hande the weight. I need to work on this before going heavier. Everything else was alright, but I was pooped today.
