1. With one 45# plate and start with a touch down squat. Hinge your hips back and bring your chest forward to engage your glutes and remain in balance. Your foot should be fully engaged to the ground and bodyweight spread evenly across the entire foot – not all in the heel. Squat down until you tap your heel down ever so slightly before returning back up.✅
2. Progress to 2 or 3 stacked plates if the above exercise gets too easy.

then..
Ankles:
1. Elevated heel squat with an extended plate- hold for 30 seconds and do 3 reps
With your feet grabbing the side of a plate and big toes jammed into the ground, hold another plate in front of your body as you sink into a deep bodyweight squat (this can be as light as a 25 lb or 10 kg plate held in front). Keep your core braced as you squat as deep as you can with your upper body as upright as possible. Don’t sit your hips back but instead pull your hips and knees forward as far as possible while maintaining a balanced foot position.
2. Support Squat Hold- hold for 30 seconds and do 3 reps
Stand about a foot away from a rack or rig with your feet in a straight forward position slightly outside of shoulder width (this width may be a little exaggerated for some but that’s the goal). With your core braced squat as low as you can and pull your hips forward. This should bring out a good stretch in your groin/hips.

I will give you a little advice on how I would go about warming up for the Total and you can take it for what it’s worth.
One mistake I have seen in the past is an athlete will warm up with weights nowhere near their max and then jump right into their declared attempts. If you are planning on hitting a PR back squat of 405lbs and only warmed up with 95lbs x5, odds are you are not going to hit your goal. On the flip side, you also don’t want to do so many warm up sets that you are smoked when you start the Total.
So, here is my advice. Start with the back squat and do 1×5 @~40%, 1×3 @~60%, 1×1 @~75%, 1×1 @~80%, and 1×1 @~90%. Take a short breather and then move onto the press. You should be fairly warm from the squats and the press weights will be significantly lighter, so you might choose fewer sets; say 1×5 @~40%, 1×2 @~70%, 1×1 @~80%, and 1×1 @~90%. The same goes for the deadlift.
Once you begin I would recommend your first attempt be a weight you know you can hit for a triple. Then your second weight should be something you know without a doubt you can hit for a single. If all is well, go for that new PR on the third attempt. Focus, visualize, deep breath, hold, and crush your previous PR!
