WEDNESDAY WORKOUT (STRONG PATH)

NEW STRENGTH CYCLE!!

It's been a while since we Benched so we definitely need to test this one...

STRENGTH:
Bench Press 1RM

Start with working some of the technical ques we will provide you with after the warm up and really work on solid positions...

Start with sets of 5 reps then as the weigh increases move down to sets of 3s and 2s then down to 1s as you approach your max weight...

Take between 6-8 total sets for this one...

15-20 minutes depending on class sizes...

STRENGTH ENDURANCE:
Every OTHER minute for 6 total minutes (3 sets) perform the following:
10 Steps of KB/DB Loaded Reverse Lunges (In Place... 1 DB/KB in each hand)
- Start with a moderate weight for this first week

REST 1 MINUTE...

Every OTHER minute for 4 total minutes (2 sets) perform the following:
As many Bent Over DB/KB Rows as possible...
- Pick a weight you can get 20+ with each set

REST 1 MINUTE...

Every minute on the minute for 2 total minutes perform the following:
1st minute - Weighted Side Plank (Right Side)
2nd minute - Weighted Side Plank (Left Side)
- The goal is to add a weight that allows you to do the whole 60 seconds UNBROKEN on both sides this first week...
