0:00 – 15:00
Animal Mobility (emphasis on lateral low-gait movements)
15:00 – 30:00
Overhead Pressing prep:
3 x 5
Plyo Push-ups (can be done on knees if necessary)

Strength
Levels 2-4
20:00 – 40:00
Spend about 10 minutes on warmup sets, then in the next ten minutes:
3 supersets
5 Strict Press
5/5 Single Arm Kettlebell Push-Press
Notes:
– During your warmup sets, do NOT superset with push press, save that for the three work sets ONLY.
– The supersets should be done with the same weight for all three sets, do not increase/decrease the load.
– The kettlebell weight should be heavier than 50% of the weight on the bar, e.g. if you have 135# on the barbell, you should use the 32k/70# (or heavier) kettlebell for your push presses
Level 1
20:00 – 40:00
5 sets (roughly E4MOM)
5 Double Kettlebell Strict Press
5/5 Single Kettlebell Push Press (use the next heavier kettlebell weight)
Resilience
40:00 – 45:00
Movement review
45:00 – 60:00
Levels 2-4
Alternating Turkish Getup/Windmills (get up to standing, perform the windmill, then get back down and switch sides)
5 Strict Hanging Leg Raises
Notes:
– Try to bring toes to the bar with straight legs and without leaning back
– SLOW negatives: we want time under tension, focus on strong contraction in the deep core muscles
– Be mindful and methodical; make beautiful movement
Work up to the following weights (only if possible without any sloppiness):
L4 – 32/24, straight legs all the way to bar
L3 – 28/22, straight legs all the way to bar
L2 – 24/16, straight legs as high as possible
Level 1
Alternating Turkish Getups (no windmill unless you are already good with it)
5 Knee Tucks to Leg Extension
L1 – you may lower the legs down fully extended if you want to make it more challenging
