OK, you’ve been waiting for it! 10-week Squat Cycle is here!!!!
We’re changing it up this year and adding complexity in the programming: tempo squats (three variations throughout the 10 weeks), three rep schemes, and some heavy cleans for good measure! It’s going to be a blast and you will get strong and live through it!
If you’ve never done tempo squats before – you measure the time you descend, sit at the bottom, ascend, and pause before squatting again.Β So there are 4 numbers in the tempo: down, pause, up, pause.Β That last pause is the pause before you descend on another squat.Β We count one-onethousand-two-onethousand-three-onethousand.Β We will practice with air squats tomorrow during the warm up.

Veterans Day is a day to reflect upon the heroism of those who died in our countryβs service. This yearβs Veteranβs day workout honors Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson who died by suicide on Oct. 29, 2018, due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast-wave injuries, and PTSD. Our goal is to honor Chadβs life and legacy, and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.
For time:
1,000 weighted step-ups
β 35-lb ruck, 20-inch box
β 45-lb ruck, 20-inch box
Todayβs workout is a long grind. Complete as a team, with a partner, or individually for time. Reduce the load and height of the step-up as needed. If you have completed this workout previously, look back and use that information to help you tackle todayβs effort.
