Week 10 – (10/15) 

20^th – 19^th January 2020 

Block 2: Skills focus 

First week of a 6 week skill block. 

After spending the last 10 weeks working on predominantly strength, we will now shift into more of a skill focus. Strength is the basis for skill, and without strict strength it is very difficult to improve skill. There will be less emphasis on strength over these 6 weeks, but we’ll aim to maintain and use what we’ve gained.

Some of the aims/focuses for these 6 weeks: 

• Muscle ups / pull ups 
• Pistol squats / single leg strength  
• T2B 
• Barbell cycling  
• Kipping progressions 
• DB movements
