CYCLE NOTES: The front squat is serving 2 purposes here. First, we want to check in with a movement we haven’t used in a while, and that will be a focus in the upcoming cycle. Second, the front squat is an opportunity for athletes focusing on building strength/prepping for the powerlifting total, to use an accessory to improve aspects of the back squat.
The conditioning requires the athletes pay attention to pacing, and to pushing the pace on longer cardio intervals.
