Hey Ash,

I've decided to approach this lockdown a little different. I've got this gym and I want to use it as much as I can. So I've written a bit of a program for myself. Do you mind having a look over and tell me how crazy it is?

Goals are: get stronger with my front squat, stay active and motivated. I don't intend on pushing the other strength areas too much, but having them there keeps me happier.

Each day I'm planning to keep the strength portion to same to see if I can progress over the 6 weeks, with the idea being that I alternate between the metcons. On Wednesday and Thursday I intend on dialling into the zoom class for mobility and "barbell".

Monday - No cardio Monday

Focus on upping my front squat strength then working on heavy power cleans.

  • Work to a heavy 3 front squats into 5x8 front squats.
  • Build to a heavy single power clean into 3x10 power clean. Focus on keeping the bar close.
