Tuesday - strength day

Slower pace today, not for time, opportunity to work on form and strength development with the following workout that involves lots of Cleaning and Pressing away from the laundromat.

7/7/7 reps of Power Clean, Front Squat, Push Press
5/5/5 reps of Cleans and Push Press
7/7/5/5/3 reps of Thrusters

High Performers use 1/2 bodyweight
Functional Athletes take on 1/3 bodyweight.

High Performers are those training in the group eager to achieve very high levels of strength and conditioning - typically to bring more fight to a sport or outdoor endeavor. These folks are eager to develop warrior class fitness.

Functional Athletes are those who want to move through life with greater strength, stamina, endurance, etc but are not necessarily chasing down optimal fitness at any level of suffering or soreness. These folks are eager to develop high levels of health and wellness.

Both groups are welcome to workout side by side, modified and scaled to capabilities and goals, and encouraged to embrace productive suffering (aka intensity) during the workouts. Like Mike G is doing below.
