ME Workout for the Week Ending 05.01.10

We will be changing things up a bit for the next ME cycle. Each workout will have a slow lift and a "quick" lift. We will not be using Wendler's 5-3-1 for this cycle. The first movements are:

front squat
5-5-5 rest 3 minutes between sets
power clean
3-3-3 rest 3 minutes between sets

Perform a few (3 or more) sets of warm-ups for the movement. Next, perform your first work set with a weight you feel will be challenging but doable. If the lift is successful @ the prescribed rep range, add 10 lbs to the next set. If the lift is not successful @ the prescribed range, decrease the weight for the next set. Repeat this process for the third set.
