We will be in testing mode for the next couple of weeks. Squat and Press are up first. I’d say close to 75% of you guys PR’d your 1RM clean and Jerk last week. Things are going well in the strength/technique department for a LOT of you competitive worker-outers! Great job!

Quick shout out to Branden Embry who tested some things last Thursday and jumped 20# in his clean & jerk, back squat and deadlift!

Now it’s your turn:

Squat 3RM

Press 3RM

*you can use this 1 RM predictor to calculate your approximate 1 RM.

We’ll add some midline/accessory work on top of this each class.
