Coach Johnno Laz & Back Squats

By: 0

Those of you that participated in the sprint clinic last summer will remember Coach Johnno Lazetich. He ran track and played football in high school in Reno, NV, and played football at Kansas State in college. He had ambitions to play pro ball in his father’s footsteps, and they were derailed by one too many concussions. He took all his athletic and coaching skills to Reno high schools for years, and has never forgotten about training himself.

 

He now has his sights on being the pusher on the US Bobsled team. He needs at #420 back squat and a #340 power clean to qualify. Check out his #475 back squat in the video below!:

 

Six months ago his back squat was #200 on a good day.  Go Johnno GO!!!

Wednesday’s WOD:

High Bar Back Squat – Find 1rm

After 1rm, if this is your first set of 20 (you have not been here for the last two weeks) reduce weight to 75% and complete a set of 20.  NO RE-RACKING THE WEIGHT.  If you need to rack the weight in the middle, you are finished, and we will reduce to a lower weight next week.

If you completed the heavy set of twenty last week or the week before: add 5lbs to your weight from last week.

As time allows:

Alternate:
8-8-8 RDLs
3 sets of submaximal abdominal work of your choice
