Special Events - General 044 Protocol

[Dan S]

Hello,

I am not sure how many people are on this forum, but I noticed while reading through the new book that Q and D states that sets series should begin at the 4 minute mark.

In the material that I was given at ATC in June it states that the new series should begin at the 3:00 mark. I figure this is important because in both cases it says don’t reduce the the rest periods so for 044 which is it?

Thanks,

Dan

I received an answer to my question. The answer is to rest two full minutes so you should utilize the protocol in Q & D and not the one mentioned in ATC material.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan,

Glad you finally got your answer!

Yes, with Plan 033 you stick with the 3-minute mark.

Plan 044 gets an extra minute of rest since you only perform snatches (thus, the 4-minute mark).

I love Plan 033 and will experiment with 044 in the future. I was going to try it to prepare for the TSC, but I would rather stick to what I know works to get myself and my coaching clients ready for the TSC rather than trying something new just yet.
