STIMULUS
• Choose our barbell weight in this triplet workout based on the limiting factor, which will be the overhead squat
• This should be a lighter load that allows us to complete the 10 reps ideally unbroken throughout
• While the overhead squat are on the lighter side, the deadlift is intended to be incredibly light
• Choose a pull-up rep number or variation that allows you to complete the 5 reps in no more than 3 sets during the workout. Scale up to strict pull-ups.
MOBILITY:
