Go Val!

A. Front Squat; build to a heavy set of 5 and do 4 more sets of 5 at that weight.
B. 3 rounds; every 5 minutes for 15 minutes:
Romanian Deadlift @31X1; 6-8 reps
DB Side Step-Up @21X1; 10-12 reps
Glute Ham Raise @2112; 10-12 reps

Notes:
A. The first set of 5 should be heavy but not maximal so that you can do 4 more sets at the same weight.  Coach may assign different types of squats and rep schemes as needed.
B. Prioritize tempo and form over load and volume.  Use the rep range to determine the weight.  for the step-ups, focus on alignment and using the top leg to do all the work, no pushing off the bottom foot or reaching down with the bottom foot.  Control the descent.  Scale GH raises to GHD Hip Extensions or supine single leg bridge at tempo.
