GOAL: RPE 8 | Progressive overload through pre-exhaustion. The goal is to pre-exhaust the chest and triceps BEFORE hitting our main strength piece. Effort should be moderate on the first piece. For the second piece, the goal is still to build from what you did last week. A slight incline means 15 degrees if you have an adjustable bench or one plate under the bench if you only have access to a flat bench.

GOAL: RPE 9 | Tough Push/Pull here building from our efforts in Week 1. Pronating means your wrists actually rotate from a neutral grip to a pronating grip as you press the dumbbells. Leave it all out there on the chest fly drop set, and then really focus on the quality of movement on the back and lat superset. Enjoy!
