NovembeR StRength - Day 1

In November we hit our final phase of power development. This strength program will use elements of max strength while combining more super sets (weighted exercises followed by unweighted) and body weight plyometrics and ski specific jumps. 

As a reminder our RPE weight scale is as follows: 
Light: technique focus. controlled movement. won't be sore the next day 
Medium: challenging but can complete all reps and all sets with perfect technique
Heavy: Can barley compete the last rep in each set 
Vheavy: Maxed out. Likely needs a spot to finish the last rep
Dynamic: Light but quick, precise movements. Lifting as quick as you can 

WARM UP: 5 - 30 minites cardio
