STIMULUS
Going on the clock for this front squat strength and positioning work
We’ll work through 3 sets of 3 at different percentages of your 1RM front squat (60-68%)
This is week 1 of 2 for this progression
The goal is to stick to the tempo on each set, which is:
5 Seconds Down
2 Seconds Pause
Aggressively Stand
The tempo is ultimately more important than the weight on the bar – so adjust as needed to stick to the pace
These reps come from the rack, with a new set starting every minute for 9 minutes

GENERAL
In this “Fight Gone Bad” style workout, you’ll work for 5 minutes before resting for 1
Looking to choose weights that allows you to complete around 15-20 reps at each station during the workout
This works out to 75-100 reps each round
Score is total reps across the 3 rounds
DUMBBELL MOVEMENTS
Choose a dumbbell weight that you can complete 20+ reps of each movement unbroken when fresh
Dumbbell Snatches: Alternate Hands Every Rep
Dumbbell Hang Clean & Jerks: Alternate Hands Every 5 Reps
BOX JUMPS
These are standard box jumps, requiring full extension at the top of each rep
STRATEGY
There are a couple ways to approach this 5-minute on, 1-minute off workout
The first is to have a rep goal for each round or each movement
For example, you could try to hold somewhere between 15-20 reps on each movement
Another option would be to pre-set the time you are working on each minute
For example, you could go with a tabata style or double tabata interval option on the weighted movements and move for the whole minute on the non-weighted movements
On the wallballs, snatches, and hang clean and jerks, consider one of following:
1 Set of :40 Seconds On, :20 Seconds Rest
2 Sets of :20 Seconds On, :10 Seconds Rest
Since you aren’t holding anything for the box jumps and row, just find a pace you can keep moving at for the whole minute
Pre-determining the time you’ll work for can help you keep moving forward and can help you maintain similar reps from round to round

Metcon (No Measure)
3 Sets For Quality:
:20 Second L-Sit
:30 Second Wall-Facing Handstand Hold
:40 Double Kettlebell Static Squat
Rest as Needed Between Sets
STIMULUS
Choose a time domain on the L-Sit that you can complete in 1-2 sets each round
The L-Sits are ideally completed on parallettes, but can also be completed hanging from a pull-up bar if needed
Choose a time for the handstand hold and static squat that you can complete unbroken each round
The two kettlebells are meant to be held in the front rack during the static squat
You can build in weight or stay the same across – but choose something that you’ll get the 40 seconds done unbroken
Move directly from one movement to the next, resting as needed between the 3 sets
MOVEMENT FOCUS
L-Sit & Wall-Facing Handstand Hold
Let’s focus on staying active through the shoulder on both of these movements. Shrug down on the L-Sit to get further off the ground and shrug up in the handstand hold.
Kettlebell Static Squat
The focus here is on staying active as well. Hold a position just below parallel and try to keep the legs working. What we want to avoid is dropping down into total end range. Keep the belly tight, chest up, and legs actively working to hold the weight.
