• Coaching Brief & Class Overview

Today we’re focused on upper-body pressing stamina and shoulder integrity, starting with a quality warm-up that opens the thoracic, engages the core, and activates overhead stability. In the strength piece, we’re working through 8 sets of 3 strict press at 70–80%, emphasizing consistent, controlled reps without chasing fatigue. The conditioning piece, “All Gas, No Brakes,” is a classic push/pull couplet with added interference from double unders—expect grip, shoulders, and midline fatigue to build fast. Encourage athletes to pace push-ups early and manage transitions tightly, especially heading into jump rope efforts. We’ll finish with optional accessories targeting shoulder health, bracing strength, and kettlebell control through Turkish Get-Ups and rear delt flys.
