Stimulus & strategy

An aerobic couplet that punishes weak overhead position. The runs let you breathe; the overhead squats demand focus every single rep.

Standards
  • · Rx men: 43 kg · Rx women: 29 kg
  • · Bar locked out overhead, hip crease below the knee, arms straight throughout.
Scaling
  • · Reduce the load so all 15 overhead squats are unbroken, and/or shorten the run.
Coaching tips
  • · Set your grip wide and brace hard before you dip: a stable bar is a fast bar.
  • · Come off the run and take a breath before the first rep; a missed OHS costs more than five seconds.
