Coach’s Notes
We’re pullin’ HEAVY!
First, quick reminder that those first two movements each day considered Movement Prep – essentially an extension of the warm-up preparing us for the big movements of the day.
So, those RDLs and Goblet Squats do not need to be heavy, in fact, they shouldn’t be. They are there to get us hinging and bending and primed for the heavy Deadlifts soon to follow.
Speaking of the Deadlifts, we’re working up to 90% for a double.
Now, we should be bracing hard and focusing on great technique EVERY rep of EVERY set… but, the closer to 100% of our 1RM we get, the higher the risk of injury due to poor technique. Moral of the story – be LOCKED IN today.
Finally, and I try to mention this often, but some days 90% feels like 150%. If they weight just isn’t moving like it should, it’s okay to back off, get some quality reps in at lighter weight and survive to fight another day. Don’t force something that just isn’t there today.
