Two great pictures of Goblet Squats. Weight on the heels, knees tracked out over toes, hips parallel or below, nice midline stabilization and bell as close to chest as possible

and.. it is finally over
Great job with the Zone Challenge.I know it was challenging at times but everyone endured to the end and noticed some great changes. Now it is not all about what the scale says. What is more important is how you LOOK, FEEL and PERFORM. I can notice an observable difference in everyones body structure, more lean and fit. I can also tell in your performance, especially the workout that was completed today. I have also heard some great things on how everyone feels eating cleaner and healthier. The hardest part is now when it is not a challenge as part of the gym, to continue with what you have been doing and make it a lifestyle. There will be more challenges to come and I am sure you will brace them with open arms.

10M is a long way
10 meters on the min. Every minute, add 10 meters. This can be done 2 ways. 1) either measured on a watch/computer (i.e., Garmin, Polar, bike computer, compu trainer or pool markers) and stopping each successive 10 meters by moving forward. This is the way that it should be done for cycling or swimming. Or 2) set up 2 cones 10 meters a part, and add one return trip each minute on the minute... Either way, you are to add 10 meters each round until you can no longer continue.
Pacing is the key here, try not to go all out the first 5-10rounds or so, you are going to need some left in the tank for the later rounds.

SDHP re-visited
We are going to start re-visiting the barbell movements and start incorporating them into our workouts from here on. We will go over mechanics and common faults to watch out for and we will build on this movement throughout the week by tailoring it into our warmups
Sumo Dead Lift High Pull
Setup:
Stance is wider than shoulder width, weight on your heels, tight midline stability, shoulders in front of bar, arms straight and have an even grip.
Performance:
Be aggressive through the heels to full extension of the hips, shrug aggressively, (as the hips and shrug are what create speed and momentum on the bar) arms follow shrug by pulling bar to chin with elbows high and outside, return bar in reverse pattern.
Faults:
Pulling to early with the arms, poor shrug, elbows are low, (wrists above elbows) too slow, segmenting the movement uneveness of the bar and hitting your knees.
Everyone did great today, some faults were shown, however, it is something to work on. You can only get better from here.

Dumbell Thrusters
Pullups
The Dumbells are going to be new to everyone, so make sure you warmup and take a couple practice reps with a couple of different weights to see what it is you can handle. It is way different then a barbell as your arms are independent of each other and it is going to take more concentration and coordination to keep them steady overhead. This is suppossed to be a fast workout so also choose a weight that you feel you can get through without breaking up the reps too much.

The key is not to jiggle
1rep max Overhead Squat
Here is Mitchell with a 145# OHS
The key here is control. This movement should not be rushed, it should be deliberatly slowed down to where you control the weight both down and up. Make sure you take that deep breath before descending and hold it through the whole motion, find the spot where the bar feels stable overhead and keep that position throughout the motion. Ver important to have ACTIVE shoulders, drive that weight through the ceiling and hid your ears. DO NOT let your elbows bend or your shoulder blades drop down. And most importantly commit to the lift once it is overhead commit to finishing the lift safely of course.

Choose a weight that is challenging for at least one of the movements. Example if your weakest lift is your HPC than use the heaviest weight you can handle for that movement and the other two movements will feel pretty light. You want to work up to having all the movements balane out in weight.

The pushups and the squat jumps are movements that are in the burpee. I know most if not all of you do not like burpees but they are part of life and the programming. The best way to not have them suck as bad is to be good at them, train your weaknesses and your dislikes to better improve your overall capacity to handle the unknown and unkonwable. These are intervals so work as fast as you can and know you have a 2min rest after each one. Mentally push your self through this one.

Choose both and KB and a box that are challenging for you that keeps your cycle time relativley fast. That 2min rest is awaiting you after every cycle so get it done quick.
Control the KB all the way through the motion, do not let the KB carry you down to the ground and swing through your legs behind you. Own the KB, keep your chest up and engage the hamstrings in the bottom of the motion, nice tight abs and active shoulders at the top, control, do not let the KB go to far behind you over head either.

Learn something new
Today we will learn the Deadlift and start pulling some weight from the ground. The deadlift is an essential lift in everyday life. It is the safest and best biomechanical way to pick something off of the ground. You want to save your back, learn to deadlift. You use it more than you think. Picking up your children, a piece of paper, the water bottle to go ontop of your cooler. After learning the Deadlift, please do not let me see you bending iver to pick something up keep your back strait and use your legs and back as a lever. It's pretty cool to pick heavy stuff off of the ground.

Tabata Situps for 8rounds
The front squat is Barbell movement with the burpee being a metabolic conditioning body weight exercise. In other words, the burpees are gonna make you breathe hard and make the front squats suck that much more, literally. Dig in and crank through the Front Squats the best you can with little break in between. You will be huffin and puffin but do your best to mentally challenge yourself through the discomfort.

Rest as needed between runs but do not exceed 7min. This is not a 7mi rest break this is to teach you and for you to figure your body out as to what is adequate rest at the present time to allow yourself maximum potential at each interval, too little rest and poor results, too much and you are defeating the purpose

This is the way that it should be done for cycling or swimming. Or 2) set up 2 cones 10 meters a part, and add one return trip each minute on the minute... Either way, you are to add 10 meters each round until you can no longer continue.
