CrossFit Mettle and Honor – NC FLEX

Functional Strength

Slight Incline Barbell Tempo Bench (20X0) (Weight)

8-6-6-4-4

-Rest 2:00 b/t Sets-

(Score is Weight)

GOAL: RPE 10 | The second to last week of this cycle means we are dropping the pre-exhaust sets and the tempo. No excuses not to go heavy. LET’S GO! 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. Tempo and mechanics are key here.
