GOAL: RPE 6-7 | Say goodbye to your legs…that is all. For the Tall Box Jumps, two-foot takeoff and two foot landing. Actually…one thing about the squats. Make sure you spend a FULL :03 in the hole. Ok, now say goodbye to your legs.

Bodybuilding

10/10 Single DB Lateral Raise

20 Alt. DB Front Raise*

2.) 3 or 4 SETS

Max Reps EZ Bar Curl (AHAP)

Immediately Into…

Max Reps Single DB Floor Press (AHAP)*

*Hold DB Across Chest

-Rest as Needed b/t Sets-
GOAL: Shoulders, Chest, and Arms for our bodybuilding portion today. Option for 3 or 4 sets depending on how you are feeling after the leg blast bonanza. FYI — seated banded rows are LEGIT. I like doing these with a little more control and feeling the muscles of the back activate at the end range of motion. If you want to make this extra spicy…add a small tempo to the return back to extension.
