LEGS - 8/28/13

Warmup - With an unweighted BB, for 3 minutes, do:
      Back Squat (no pause) - 5 reps
      Behind the Neck Standing Shoulder Press (no pause) - 5 reps

      Work continuously, but at a comfortable pace, going back and forth between
      the squat and the standing press.    

#1  BB Frankenstein Front Squat with a 3 second PAUSE at the bottom      5-5-5 reps

      For the Frankenstein Front Squat, the bar is racked across your shoulders, just like
      a front squat, but your arms are straight out in front of you, angled slightly upward,
      with your palms facing each other.  Take the bar from the rack to start each set,
      and rerack it at the end of each set.  Do a set or two with just the bar.  The first set
      with weight added to the bar counts as the first of your three sets.  Try to add
      weight each set.  Rest between sets.

#2  BB Clean with a 3 second PAUSE      2-2-2-2 reps

      The pause is after the pull, in the receiving position (the same position as the bottom
      of a front squat).  Do a couple of sets with lighter weight, and then the 4 sets that
      count are at 75% of your clean 1RM.  Reset your starting position for each rep.  Don't
      do "touch and go" on the second rep.  Rest between sets.

#3  Do 1 round of:

      BB Back Squat (no pause) - 10 reps
      Kipping Pullup - 20 reps
      DB Thruster - 30 reps
      Hand Release Pushup - 40 reps
      Air Squat - 50 reps
      REST - 90 seconds
      Air Squat - 50 reps
      Hand Release Pushup - 40 reps
      DB Thruster - 30 reps
      Kipping Pullup - 20 reps
      BB Back Squat (no pause) - 10 reps
