Earlier I challenge everyone to state their training goals for 2010. Now, I am asking you what your plan is for getting those goals? You do have a plan, don't you? If you are a coached athlete, does your coach know your goals? Have you guys discussed those?
Who said "goals without plans are just dreams". Here are my goals in priority and my plans for achieving them. Please note, again, training is my hobby and I love the thinking/planning/implementing training ideals as much as the results. My training is a journey, I am enjoying the ride, not just looking forward to the destination.
1. Snatch 100kg. This is a tall goal. My current PR in the snatch is about 195lbs. I have snatched balanced 215, my front squat for a triple is 295lbs. I believe I have the strength to snatch 100kg, I need the technique. My snatch training will focus on technique and slowing building the loads. Technique training will be done on most training days, usually with just the PVC or light weights. I will also add in some supplementary exercises to work the various pulls individual...halting deadlifts, power snatches, snatch balances, tall snatches, etc. I plan on doing at least 1 snatch workout a week. I am not setting any sub goals..like snatch 205lbs by Feb, 210 by July, etc. I think getting my technique solid is the main thing I need to do.
2. 200 reps SSST. This is a secondary goal. My training be based around doing KB exercises on days not olifting. Mixing in swings, snatches, TGUs with other exercises in conditioning circuits. Depending on the progress, I may put 1 KB snatch specific workout a week (there are many on DD to chose from). I do believe the hardstyle KB swing is an important component of the KB snatch and focusing on it will lead the goal.
3. 25 Deadhang Pull-ups. Nothing special here, just do pull-ups. I am focusing on doing ladders, ala Pavel. 5min of pull-ups a few times a week as I am able. I think just doing this (consistently) will get me there.
4. Double-Unders. This is my lowest priority and is a goal just because I think doing 100 DU consistently shows one is capable at DUs. I have no real plan here, other then incorporate DUs into conditioning circuits and occasionally do DU skill work.
That is my plan. What is yours?
