Jump Squats – 150 in 4:33ATS is Around The Square, an exercise from Vert Shock. I tweaked my back in the tuck jumps and didn’t want to injure myself in squats so stuck my lifting belt on for the final set. Jump squats aren’t too bad, might put hands on head to make it more aerobically challenging.

Vert Test 52cm/20.5″
Power Clean – 8 x 1 x 80kg
Hex DL – 5 x 3 x 120kg
Hip Thrust – 7,8,8,7 x 100kg
Swiss Ball HS Curls – 13,12,11,11
Conditioning (5 mountain climbers, 1 burpee x 25) – 8 mins 45 secsI had a 55cm vertical in May last year prior to doing Vert Shock, would like to be jumping higher than that this year (I’m considering another vert program). Switched cleans to singles, allows me more focus on maximising each rep and I used a loose 1 min rest. Having done all those lunges in my leg program I felt like increasing my volume, so instead of 3 sets of DL, Hip thrust and Swiss ball curls I did 5, 4 & 4 sets.

Leg Raises – 3 x 12My bench is coming back, 90kg was comfortable. Switched to pendlay rows as I prefer them, slowly lowering each rep. I move Incline DB curls to the higher rep exercise as it feels more of a finisher.
