I named this workout FUSION4.5 as I’m bringing together several different things in one workout. I really enjoy using my rest time for stretching and mobility. I’ve decided to program it more for public workouts as well.
If you’re still working on technique then I suggest picking a light to medium weight and stick with that. In this workout I started with 2 x 24kg first round, 2 x 20kg second and third round, 2 x 16kg for the rest of the rounds.
Fusion as in the workout combines bodyweight exercises, strength, endurance, and stretching.
- 1 minute of deep squat and push-up
- 1 minute of dead clean into the alternating overhead reverse lunge
Perform two reps and rest for the remainder - 1 minute of clean and jerk
- 1 minute of stretching
- 30 seconds of rest
In total 4.5 minutes per round
Repeat for 6 rounds
#2 is just two reps, that’s all you should be able to do in one minute when you do it slow enough.
#4 my stretches are hip and thoracic hyperextension into the pike and alternating pigeon stretch. This covers everything at the front and back, especially shoulders and glutes.
I finished with 6 minutes of mobility work with the alternating Sots press.
