FOR THE COACH
Stimulus
In part 1 we have our 3rd week of the bench press cycle. Athletes should aim to begin their first second of 2 where they finished their final set of 3. If they don’t know that number, they should target around 82% of their 1RM for set 1 and build from there. In part 2 the barbell should be very light and something that takes no more than 2 sets to complete. Each station should take around :60 to complete.
Box Jumps | :60 or less.
Thruster | :60 or less. Light. 2 sets or less.
The One | Teaching Focus
Break the bar
Today our teaching focus will emphasize performance on the bench press. In both the eccentric and pressing segments of the lift, cue athletes to “break the bar.” This will engage the lats and the upper back and provide a high level of stability for the lift. While “breaking the bar” athletes should have a slight elbow tuck by keeping them close to the body.
