Continue adding 1 rep every minute until you can no longer complete the set. Partial reps count so if you get 13 reps in the 15 for example, it does add up to your overall score. Don’t just stop if you think you won’t finish the next minute. Still get as many as you can

Widowmaker
20 rep max back squat
We tested the widowmaker 4 weeks ago on November 22nd. Since then, we programmed 2 days of squatting per week dedicated to building up strength and capacity for that volume. This is on top of the regular programming and the weightlifting which had plenty of squatting. If you followed the whole program, you should have the strength, capacity, and confidence to hit at least 20-30lbs more than what you did 4 weeks ago. Now, there’s more to it than just following a program. Proper nutrition, proper rest, mindset, how you feel and much more that will influence if you get a new record. If you don’t get it, don’t stress it out, that’s life. We can’t always PR. The real deal is, when we don’t PR, how we take it and how we keep going.

WOD exchange
Bring a workout wrapped in a box. Randomly, athletes will pick one of the gifts and have the choice to open it or exchange it. Once we have all the gifts open we will do the workouts.

Pyro weightlifting W6D3 (last day of this cycle)
New weightlifting cycle starts Tuesday January 7th. We have 2 weeks between now and then and we’ll use that time to reset and work on technique.
“Forged by Fire” (6 weeks, 3/week)
This cycle will be barbell cycling focus. Lots of touch and go, complexes with varied quick rest periods. This will develop our ability to accelerate rep rate and recovery between sets. Loads will be lighter and we should aim for the typical classic benchmark loads like 135/95 used for “GRACE”, “ISABEL” or 155/105 for “DT” for example. We’ll be doing ladders as well
