CrossFit Mettle and Honor – NC FLEX

NOTE — THROWBACK WEEK TO 1/24/22

Functional Strength

Push Press (10-8-6-8-10*)

*Start Moderate, Build to Heavy, Come Back Down to Moderate.

**Superset each set with 20 Slow Tuck-Ups and 30 Banded Face Pulls.

-Rest as Needed b/t Sets-

GOAL: RPE 6-7 | Building to a heavy 6-rep (heaviest of the day) then coming back down a little for your second set of 8-10. Not looking for BLAZING speed on the push press but feeling the push from the lower body into a powerful drive overhead. If you want an extra challenge…add that slow lower thoughhhh!
