Phoenix Week 9
Monday 5/9/22
A. Back Squat
20 minutes to find a 10 rep max
B. Beersbee
For Time:
12-16-20-16-12
Wallballs 20/14#
Burpees
It’s test week! This will be our chance to show off all the hard work we have been putting in. Our first challenge will be the 10 rep max back squat. This should feel like a breeze compared to the 1 and 1/4 squats we did this cycle. Make sure you have a checklist going into the back squats for each rep. Breath, brace, hips start the squat and chest stays tall. Let’s see some PRs!
Beersbee is going to be a fun challenge to go for unbroken sets on the Wallballs and consistent pace on the Burpees. Try not to fall into the trap of going too fast on the Burpees and have to break up the Wallballs at the round of 20. There will be a 15 minute time cap on this workout.

Annie Wilkes is back with vengeance! If you were lucky enough to test this workout at the beginning of the cycle you know your legs will be feeling the 10RM squats from Monday.
