Monday 21st Jan

STRENGTH:
Overhead squats 7-6-6-5-4 (first 2 sets tempo @21X1)
Switching up the tempo this week with a 1 second pause at the bottom of the squat for the first 2 sets. Again, 1 rep more in total then the previous week. Building confidence and working on hitting depth.
Aim to increase the weight each set depending on how you feel and your own OH squat mobility. The aim is to get comfortable with the bar positioning overhead and try to hit your depth on each rep. The tempo will encourage better positioning and technique.

Your score will be the amount of Pull ups and HSPU you got overall. For example: Score 1- 36 pull ups and Score 2- 27 HSPU. Both movements must be strict and no kipping allowed.
Aim to complete the other movements within each minute. Scale as needed so you can finish all reps within the minute giving you around 10 seconds to move to the next movement. The key will be selecting the correct amount of reps/cals you can hit everytime, try not to change the number. The numbers above are a guide.
