– Welcome to week two of the 2025 Strength 1 lifting cycle. The next four weeks will be dedicated to the clean and jerk following a wave-loading template. Week five will be a deload week and then in week six, we will test our 1-rep clean and jerk.
– Use a recent max or heavy single for your percentages.
– If the percentage calls for more than a single rep, they are meant to be completed as unbroken, touch-and-go reps.
– Rest as needed between percentages and waves.

4 sets for load:
100-meter dumbbell farmers carry

– Relatively heavy grunt work.
– Spend no more than 15 minutes completing this session.
– Rest 10-20 seconds between movements and then as needed between sets.
– Build in load to a heavy set across all movements that leaves you feeling fatigued but able to maintain movement quality.
– Farmers carry modifications: Load, dumbbell box step-ups
– Sandbag hold modifications: Load, dumbbell, or kettlebell front-rack hold
- Skill I
