Workout;
5 minute warmup on treadmill
Sumo Deadlift
45lb x 5

Sumo felt tough. I felt it all in my glutes. Also I forgot the right shoes, so I did it barefoot on the platform and my feet kept slipping out.
Conventional Deadlift

45lb x 5
50lb x 5
no rest between sets

Slow pushups are, I start laying on the ground, push myself up explosively, then slowly lower myself until im laying on the ground again. to make sure i don't do any half reps.

our rugby tournament was canceled because the fields haven't been cleared off yet. So did a workout.
Workout:

205lb x 2 x 5
EMOM
Power Clean + Push Jerk

Tried to do doubles EMOM, but after 5, i was taking too much time to get them up.
Treadmill Sprints
30 seconds at 5% incline 6 minute mile pace
30 seconds to do 8 pushups and take the rest of the time to rest.
4 times
Pullups

Wanted to give french contract method a try. It's kind of a peaking regiment, meant to give short term increases in force production. Thought it would be cool to do the first month of in-season, but our game this saturday got canceled as well cause the hosting team can't find an available field.MISC STRENGTH CREW

haha i'm not really sure. I've also heard it called "potentiation clusters." The idea is around using "Post Activation Potentiation" which is how after doing a heavy compound lift like a squat or a deadlift, you've activated more muscle fibers. So when you combine that with a fast twitch movement, like plyometrics, you're firing more efficiently and getting more out of the movement by pairing it. The next 2 movements, I think are just making more out of that potentiation, by doing a loaded explosive movement, but then doing an over-speed movement like band assisted jump.
All I know is I'm very very sore after these workotus!
