Work up to your max weight for:
Sandbag Back Squats 5x5
Sandbag Overhead Press 5x5
Take a 3-5 minute rest between each set of exercises. The weight of your sandbag should be such that you struggle to complete repetition 5 in each set.
Record your weight.
Plus, if you're following the Milo Experiment then you should be on Day 6. If you haven't yet started and you want a simple way to build your strength then check out the post here
Train hard!
I managed 105kg for the Back Squats and 80kg for the Overhead Press
ReplyDeleteHi Matt!
ReplyDeleteAwesome weights!!
I have a question concerning the Milo experiment. I'm doing for some weeks/months just bodyweight exercises.
So, can i do multiple reps, to practice the movement and have fun, instead of one, the days that i want to?
The days i feel tired i'll do just one. But others day i want to do a
few more reps, without getting tired, just to practice. Is it okay to do
this??
Thank you for your help!!
PD: Could you post a video with you performing a ground to overhead heavy lift without using handles??
Hi Gabriel - that's absolutely fine yes. Just remember that the goal is to continually add weight each day. I will add a video over the next few days. Matt
ReplyDeleteHi Gabriel - todays video workout has a little bit of technical work for the handleless sandbag overhead press. Matt
