Iron Grip CrossFit – CrossFit
It’s fun to use heavy max effort lifting days to go for a PR. But it’s important to once in a while use a heavy lifting session to just spend more time under a really heavy load, across multiple sets. Trust me, just because you aren’t finding a new one-rep max, doesn’t mean the workout isn’t going to be hard. Done correctly, this workout will feel as hard if not harder than if we tried to find a new 2 rep max.
On another note, here’s an interesting discussion about a coaching cue that we give a lot, because we think it has value and we’ve seen it work. But what do you think?
