Max Effort Monday - Legs and Chest Hypertrophy

On each of these sets of work you will be working to failure. The weight should be such that you are failing in the 10-12 rep range.

Strength/Hypertrophy
1a) Back Squat: 3 sets to work to a 5rm, 2X12@80%
1b) Bench Press: 3 sets to work to a 5rm, 2X12@80%
2a) Walking Lunges: 3x16 (8 each leg)

3a) Leg Extension: 2x12
3b) Leg Curls or RDLs: 2x12
3c) Calf Raises: 2x12
4) Weighted Dips: 3x12

Max Effort Friday

Strength
1) Clean: work up to a heavy complex of Hang Squat Clean + Squat Clean + Front Squat
2) Deadlift: work to a 3rm, 2XME@90%
3) Romanian Deadlift, 3x12 (each set to failure)

Conditioning
EMOM for as long as possible complete:
7 Thrusters, 75/55
7 Pull ups
7 Burpees


This is a test for pure conditioning (not skill, not strength). This test makes it easy to compare athletes across a spectrum of sizes, locations, and irregardless of skill or equipment. In other words, size, strength, or skill doesn't play a huge role (muscle ups and oly lifting would favor the skilled, heavier weights the strong, and rowing and airdyne favors those with mass). Nor does the running route, height of the wall ball target, or the model of airdyne matter. Some might argue that it favors lighter athletes, but the thruster weight equalizes this more than you might think. Now no test is perfect, and if there is any bias it would be to shorter athletes.
This is also an incredible test of mental toughness, as it is very easy to give up on this workout mentally before your body actually reaches failure. Basically this is a test of "Whatcha-got?" So... lets see whatcha-got.
