-Solid loading for chest, shoulders, and arms combined with bodyweight strength.
-Slow, controlled reps give far more benefit than shaky fast ones.

Option 35 rounds for time of:
7/10 calories on any machine
6 clean and jerks (15/20 kg)
Goal & Intensity
-This is a fast and intense workout combining machine conditioning with a barbell lift.
-The goal is to find a pace you can sustain consistently for all five rounds.
-Sprint-style effort – high heart rate with clean & jerks done quickly, ideally unbroken in the first round.
-The load should challenge you but not slow down the pace.
-If you’re between two weights, choose the lighter one and push the pace.
RPE: 8–9 – hard effort, but not full exhaustion in the early rounds.
Why: This workout builds both aerobic capacity and barbell endurance under fatigue. The accessory work with single-leg deadlifts improves balance, stability, and addresses side-to-side weaknesses. -

Snatch complex Strength
7 x every 90s.
For Load
1 Snatch deadlift + 1 below the knee squat snatch
Goal & Intensity:
-The complex develops strength, bar path technique, and explosiveness.
-Focus on control and sharp execution (RPE 6–7).
-Imagine the bar is heavier than it is – this forces you to stay tight and precise.
Why: Technique first – the snatch is a complex lift, and this way you build confidence and courage to receive the bar. This phase is crucial to prepare for lifting heavier and safer later. -
