WEIGHTLIFTING: Clean and Jerk
Every 2:00 x 6 Sets
1 Clean Deadlift + 2 Low Hang Power Cleans + 1 Split Jerk
Pause 2 seconds in the catch of the Split Jerk before returning to center each set. % based on limiting movement. Start at 65% and build across the six sets as mechanics and confidence allow. The complex is designed to develop positional awareness in the pull and reinforce stability overhead, not to chase a heavy number.

GYMNASTICS SKILL: Strict Pull-Up
Every 1:30 x 6 Sets
Option A: 5 Weighted Strict Pull-Ups
Option B: Max Unbroken Set of Strict Pull-Ups (targeting 6+ reps)
Option C: 5 Jumping Pull-Up to Slow Eccentric
Athletes should self-select their option based on current pulling strength and where they are in their gymnastics development. Option A is for athletes with a confident strict pull-up and enough capacity to add load and still move cleanly across all six sets. Option B is for athletes building volume and consistency on unbroken strict pull-ups, where the goal is a repeatable big set each interval. Option C builds the pulling strength foundation through time under tension on the eccentric phase, which is where most of the structural adaptation happens. Every option should feel like quality work, not survival.

WEIGHTLIFTING - Power Clean - For Load
Take 15:00 to Establish a 1RM Power Clean


This is our Power Clean 1RM baseline test to open the cycle. We will revisit this in Week 9 and chase a new max with nine weeks of volume and positional work behind us.

Build through no more than 4-5 working attempts, selecting an opener around 85-88% of your anticipated max and adding deliberate jumps from there; a suggested path is 3 reps @ 70%, 2 @ 80%, 1 @ 88%, 1 @ 93-95%, 1 @ 98%+.

Rest fully between heavy singles and plan your jumps before the clock starts rather than guessing between sets.

    Hello my name is Jay Lawson, founder of CrossFit Hot Springs.  I've been following CrossFit methodologies (strength and conditioning) for over 15 years now and a certified Level 1 CrossFit Trainer since March of 2010 and a Level 2 CrossFit Trainer since July, 2016. I also hold CrossFit certifications  for Olympic Lifting, Endurance and Gymnastics.  As well, I'm a USAW Level 1 Sport Performance Coach.  I've been fitness minded since a very young age.  Nothing I've done before CrossFit was even remotely as challenging, rewarding or more exhilarating.
