Goal: 28-36 Total Clean and Jerks (i.e. 10-8-6-6-4)
Primary Objective: Get through the Toes to Bar efficiently and consistently across all 5 sets to maximize time on the barbell. The T2B is a buy-in to the barbell and the total volume here of 90 Toes to Bar over the course of this workout for our Level 3 athletes will be substantial. Those in the level 2,1,masters side, there are still 75 reps of a midline component here that will need to be managed effectively here with the goal of getting to the barbel with at least 45 seconds on each set.
Secondary Objective: Accumulate as many Clean and Jerks as possible in the remaining time, particularly in Sets 1-3 where the load is manageable. Sets 4 and 5 will naturally yield fewer reps, that is expected and by design. The goal is to hit quick singles throughout with the expectation of around 10 reps down to 2 reps in the final window.
RPE: 9/10, Benchmark Test
Stimulus: Gymnastics Capacity / Barbell Cycling Under Fatigue
