Strength PrepAthletes are Back Squatting at 80% at 5 x 3. Encourage athletes to create a strong rack position by keeping hands just outside of shoulder width and also pressing up into the bar with palms (rather than just letting the bar sit up the traps). Athletes should take a deep breath in at the top of each rep, brace, and then breathe out when coming out of the squat. Make sure that the lifting area is clear of loose items, and take a moment to teach athletes how to bail from a failed squat by demoing with a PVC pipe.3.
