We lay out a seven-week “stimulus bomb” phase that aligns coaches and members around five by five back squats, pulling gymnastics, and a smart rowing bias, all aimed at real adaptation and Open readiness. We explain the why, show how to coach it, and offer flexible tools for holidays, engine work, and competitors.

• Five by five back squats as the universal strength driver
• Coaching neutral spine, bracing, stance, and glute activation
• Personalising squat style to anthropometry without losing depth
• GPP lifts in metcons to test strength under fatigue
• Pulling gymnastics through hollow and arch shapes
• Logical progressions from strict capacity to kipping efficiency
• Rowing bias, zone 2 strategy, and machine rotations
• Holiday-friendly swaps and keeping lift-only days intact
• Engine add-on structure and Sunday long slogs
• Competitor Extras tied to class for retention and readiness
