Perform three rounds:
10 Weighted SLS
40’ Squat Jumps
5 GHR
Finish the workout with 3x10 Hip Extensions.
notes:
1) This workout should be performed as a modified giant set. To this end perform the Weighted SLS (alternate legs on each rep for a total of 5 reps on each leg) then rest 60 sec, perform the Squat Jumps then rest 60 sec, finally perform the GHR and then rest 5 minutes before beginning the next modified giant set.
2) Add as much weight as possible to all of today’s exercises. Be meticulous in using a full ROM with a moderate tempo for the SLS & GHR. Add a weight vest to the Squat Jumps if you are strong enough.
3) Squat jumps should be done down a vault runway or extended grassy area. To perform the squats jumps, squat partially down and then jump as far as possible. This constitutes one repetition. Pause in between the repetitions.
4) Keep track of the number of repetitions that are required to cover the 40’. A reasonable number of repetitions to shoot for is FIVE. Shuffling the feet when landing, touching a hand to the ground or falling over adds an additional rep each time it occurs to your total rep count.
5) As noted in the essay referenced above, the first set of hip extensions is forward, the second is sideward and the third is circular. If you are able, add ankle weights to today’s Hip Extensions.
