High box 'step-up'
Weighted strength-development
•
4m 24s
THE WHAT:
A loaded, unilateral-emphasis context developing strength through the range of a high 'step-up' pattern. As the movement begins "bottom/up" firstly with a CONCENTRIC phase (i.e. as in a 'Deadlift'), to express maximal "starting-strength" optimal structure must be locked in from the BEGINNING, challenging knee-stability on the way up as well as the CONTROLLED return to the floor. An innately unilateral context (i.e. 1 leg working at a time), it can also help to identify and develop any "imbalances" between left & right sides.

Standing overhead-pressing (barbell)
THE WHAT:
Fundamental overhead-pressing strength development, with a barbell. In comparison to dumbbell or kettlebell contexts, a cumulatively greater load can be used for both greater overall intensity & neurological demand.This makes them a worthwhile project for maximal-strength development ...

Loaded-carrying contexts
THE WHAT:
Lifting a heavy load, and walking. Two fundamental facts of life which, at first glance, can seem of insufficient intensity to compare to the likes of a 'Back squat' or 'Deadlift' - but there is a reason why forms of loaded-carrying are a staple of all 'Strongman' events.The load can ...

Overhead (OH) Dumbbell (DB) pressing
THE WHAT:
Basic unilateral (1-arm) and bilateral (2-arm) overhead-pushing contexts performed with dumbbell/s. Rather than main projects of capacity-development practice to themselves, they are ideally used as AUXILIARY tools supporting the development of more intense & neurologically-demanding ov...
