Performance (Leg focused):

Tip: BARBELL WARM-UP

The barbell warm-up has stayed consistent for quite a while in this cycle, and for good reason. A consistent warm-up allows you to assess how you feel each week and compare this to prior weeks. If you do a different barbell warm-up every week, it is hard to know if you are tight, loose, explosive, slow, etc. Continue to perform the barbell warm-up to assess how you feel each day that you are performing an Olympic lifting movement, and recognize your continued improvement in these positions over time.
