Skill/Strength

Superset:

4-5x8-12 DB bench (light) (incline if desired and equipment allows)

 

Rest 3-5 mins between sets.

 

Then…

Superset:

3-4x8-10 Pendlay row

3-4x10-12 reverse DB flys (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hf7jnF45N_I)

 

Modify the reverse flys by doing banded face pulls (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toHfpKStJ48) – or add them to the superset.

 

Those new to lifting may need to cut the sets and/or reps (3-4 sets instead of 4-5). 

 

WOD (optional)

In 6 minutes:

AMRAP KB Farmer Carry and/or Sandbag Carry down and back

You can carry one or the other, or combine and carry both.

Every time you drop the KBs or sandbag, perform 5 burpees and 15 air squats (or 10 pistols)

You get 1 point for down, 1 point for back, etc. Your score is the total.

Modify the sandbag by carrying a heavy slam ball or a plate.
