**Take a look at the workout. Study it. Take another look. Study it some more. Wanna do the math, or nah?
Do this instead… come in and do the work. You’ll get in a decent amount of volume with the push ups and squats. You’ll also get in some practice moving light weight quickly. The deadlifts are the ones to look out for. We got in some RDLs yesterday using the dumbbells, now make sure you use your knees to finalize the descent of the bar to the ground instead of reach-reach-reaching by keeping your knees straights. It’s not a stiff legged deadlift.
You’ll take some weight off the bar and knock out some power cleans from the hang after more push ups and squats. The workout will wrap up with empty barbell push presses – not a strict press, or a push/split jerk like we did yesterday. For most members, these are basic movements – like the burpee – and there are plenty of reps here to fine tune your technique each time.
And if you’re not getting crease of the hip below the knee on air squats, I’m not afraid to bust out a medicine ball so you know what depth is. Spoiler alert, we have some high rep back squats coming up next week, and I want to make sure every rep counts today and going forward.
