Rack Axel Pulls

I found out that figure 8 straps are not allowed at the upcoming competition. I haven't trained much with regular straps so I need to rectify that. Today I made a good choice to prepare.

Rebounding - 40 minutes.

Kettlebell Swings - 2 sets/20,25 reps/40lbs.

Rack Axel Pulls - 2 sets/6 reps/205lbs, 295lbs/6 reps, 385lbs/6 reps, 475lbs/6 reps.


Static Stretches.

The lowest the rack goes is 19". Yes that's high but it gives me a chance to perfect strap use with an overloaded weight. Good stuff.
