Tuesday, Condition Session with kettlebells. Hills Sprints or Prowler pushes are a great alternative as well.
- Kettlebell Drills, do one mobility drill between each set
- swings 2 x 20
- clean 2 x 10 right/10 left
- high pull 2 x 10/10
- snatch 5 x 10/10
- when it comes to kettlebells, nothing beats snatches for conditioning and explosiveness so warm-up to them and then focus on them.
- That is it, the sets and reps are just a suggestion, adjust as required for your fitness level, weight of kettlebell and time permitted.
Wednesday, Bench Press week 4, heavy single as per Wendler's recommendation in 5/3/1)
Mobility Work
- A1 Fat Bar Narrow Grip Bench Press
- 95 x 10, 135 x 5, 185 x 5, 225 x 5, 275 x 5, 325 x 3, 365 x 1
- now that I think of it I should have gone for a double with 365
- A2 Dumbbell Rows
- 7 x 8-10
- B1 Strongman Log Clean and Press (use a barbell if you have to)
- 5 x 5
- B2 Pull-ups
- 5 x 8-10
Here is a video of Wendler going for max reps in the bench press.
