Monday 10/05/26 Power Lift TOTAL

2 classes today: 4:15 & 5:30 pm

This is a GREAT measure of fitness for whatever level you are. Feel free to stop in, get coached by the best and test your overall, raw strength. As we age, CONSISTENCY, MOBILITY, and STRENGTH for LONGEVITY are far more beneficial than an elliptical, stair climber or 10K steps, you NEED MUSCLE!!!!!!!!

The Power Lift Total consists of the following 3 lifts:

1. The Back Squat

2. The Shoulder Press (Strict Press)

3. The Deadlift

Unlike Olympic weightlifting, which tests explosive power and technique using the snatch and clean & jerk, the Power Lift Total measures absolute, raw strength.

The Rules of the Total

• The Goal: You get 3 attempts to find your max weight for each lift. Your score is the combined sum of your heaviest successful lift from all three movements.

• The Order: You must perform the lifts in the exact order listed above (Squat, Press, then Deadlift).

• The Time Limit: While the original definition allows for a steady warm-up and progression, we will enforce a strict time window of a 12-to-15 minute clock to complete all three).
