Late post from Saturday.


Didn't have anything heavy, so I decided to do 10x reps with what I had. Then my cousin asked me to come to her spin class the next morning, so I cut this short so as not to die on the bike...

I might also mention that the 5# increments on main lifts were due to weight availability. I’m near my max available weight at 225# on iron bar set so I supplement with my weight vest and go from 30# to 60# with that on

Globo Scale: As is. If you need to, put pads under the plates and lower the bar slowly to reduce noise so as to not piss off the globo manager. If you're at Planet Fitness or somewhere with only a smith machine, do smith machine rack pulls, them the dumbbell work below. If on a cruise ship or without a barbell today, do single leg dumbbell deadlifts with the heaviest dumbbells, without form breaking down. Then do short treadmill pushes or fast sprints.

Champions Club Scaling Notes:


RANT:

I'm not sure why exactly, but the L-sits really seem to be doing a number to help deadlifts. Another coach I work with does them between every set of deadlifts on days like this. But since the deadlift is just another form of a squat, the SLIPS can apply the same way they did for back squats:

Scales - arches in the feet while hinging at the hip

L-sit - pulling from a hips/midline perspective

Inversion(Handstand) - the descent from the handstand is the lowering of a deadlift with some added midline tension

Plank - to me, this one has the most carry over, especially when you extend the arms out a bit.

Stretching - that thing you say you do after the session but really you don't. But the pike position would be a good one here.


Lastly, the feel on this is important. You can feel these in your quads, hamstrings, abs, butt, or even shoulders. The lower-back is where we don't want to feel this one. So use that to judge how many reps and sets to do.


Check the Compare-to for the scaling notes last time.

INTENDED STIMULUS

.

Heavy day! Last Friday we went for the heaviest single squat we could manage. Today let's maximize total volume. This means we are not aiming for a PR. We are aiming to make each set as heavy as our mechanics will allow from the very first one to the last. This will guarantee that we move a $h1t-ton of weight when all the reps are added up, even though we might not hit the heaviest single we could. You should warm-up well before you start so that that first set of five is solid and heavy. Athletes familiar with this lift but not yet proficient can work sets of three instead of singles. Athletes new to the deadlift should work on drills to develop solid form.

TECHNIQUE TIP: Google "Westside Barbell - The Chair Deadlift with Louie Simmons"


👊 SLIPS THE TARGET GAME👊

The target game

For each movement, you will set up a target. Hold each position for as long as you can. You lose when your body touches the mark. How long can you hold?


â–¶ OPTION 1

Deadlift 5-5-5-3-3-3-3-3-3 reps



â–¶ OPTION 2

5 SuperSets

10 barbell good mornings

10 Chair Deadlifts (watch Simmons video)


4 SuperSets

8 slow descent KB deadlifts

4/4 single leg deadlift

Juan, as always thanks for taking the time to put this together and especially for the videos.


I have a very specific need for tomorrow’s workout to break down as much fat as possible, but still following mainsite. Would the target game be the best approach for this or would you recommend a different slips variation?
