40kg Deadlift
40kg Hang clean
40kg Front squat

Saturday 0verhead Squat fun!
One of the most humbling yet rewarding exercises in my opinion. Brilliant for developing strong shoulder stability (and mobility) and strong midline stabilization (core strength). GET SOME!

Overhead Squats 7 x 3 reps
40kg - 50kg - 60kg - 70kg - 80kg - 82.5kg
and then 60kg for 12 reps.
My aim is to be able to overhead squat my bodyweight (approw 98kg) by the end of the year.

Box jump/sit-up circuit to finish.
