* After finishing the empty barbell work, take a few minutes to build up to your starting workout weight.

* Welcome to week four of this 2025 Strength 1 lifting cycle, where we’ll continue following the same wave-loading template as our previous cycle. Next week will be a deload week, and then in week six, we will test our 1-rep snatch.
* For the percentages, use a recent max or heavy single.
* 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.
250613 (Checkmark)
EMOM 15:
8 burpees
8 wall-ball shots (14/20 lb) (9/10 ft)
Stimulus & Goals
* Consistency- and stamina-building effort.
* Choose a rep count that allows at least :10 to rest each minute.
* Unbroken wall-ball shots.
* Workout ends if the work is not completed within the minute; all athletes stop at 15:00.
* Advanced athletes could try 10/10.
Strategy
* Push the pace from the start and hang on. Give yourself as much rest as possible for as long as possible.
* Think about catching the medicine ball and pulling yourself down to the bottom of the squat as quickly as you can.

GHD Turkish Twist (Checkmark)
EMOM 15:
Minute 1 | 10 GHD back extensions
Minute 2 | 20 Russian twists (14/20 lb)
Minute 3 | 1 kettlebell Turkish get-up/side (35/50 lb)
Stimulus & Goals
* Lower-intensity skill session
* Try to go unbroken in all movements
Strategy
* Watch the Back Extension and Turkish Get-up videos to better understand each movement.
* During the back extension, think about starting at your head and flexing one vertebra at a time until you reach your lower lumbar. Then, extend each vertebra one at a time until you make it back to your head. These reps are controlled and may be relatively slow as you focus on quality technique.
* During the Turkish get-ups, keep an eye on the object the entire time to help you maintain stability and control.
