Happy Monday and welcome to the start of a new cycle, our Functional Fitness Cycle 6.0. This cycle will be an 8 week cycle focusing primarily on strength and work capacity development. For strength work, we're going to be focusing on 3 primary lifts - back squat, deadlift, and overhead squat. Oly work will be the classic C+J and snatch purely. All the strength work will be done in a "wave" format with an overall progressive overload throughout the cycle (the weights will slowly increase as the cycle goes on). As far as work capacity, we will be utilizing primarily high-output couplets paired together in an EMOM/AMRAP combination. We also have the standard metcons/intervals, gymnastics, and accessory pieces as well as normal. However, we will be more directive with the pieces that you should be accomplishing each day. As usual, hit us up with any questions that you may have.
