Heavy conditioning

The first round tends to go really fast but once the bar is grabbed for round 2 a whole new world is there. The heart rate will be elevated and breathing hard will have set in, making stabilizing a heavy load very taxing. That's the beauty of heavy conditioning sessions. The effectiveness lies in moving a large load a long distance quickly.

Training:
Power clean 3x3 or 7x1
Then
5 Thrusters (135lbs, 95lbs)
10 dumbbell snatches (45lbs, 25lbs) these are 5 each arm
15 pull-ups
3 rounds for time



Having to demonstrate accuracy and focus with an elevated heart rate is very difficult but can be trained very effectively.
