What changes for your first day, and why.
Each swap keeps the job the movement does in the workout. The cues are what an O-SEA coach will say while you do it.
Axle-bar deadliftsKettlebell deadlifts
Why this swap. A kettlebell keeps the same hinge at a weight a coach checks with you, with nothing moving fast.
Coach cues
- Bell between the feet
- Hinge with a flat back
- Stand tall and squeeze
Sled pushFarmer carry
Why this swap. A loaded walk gives the same short, hard leg and grip effort between deadlifts.
Coach cues
- Pick up like a deadlift
- Grip in the middle
- Stand tall
