CHEST 4/9/13
#1 BB Bench Press
Set 1 - 225 lbs to failure (NFL Combine Style)
Set 2 - If you complete 10 or more reps on Set 1, add 50 lbs and go to failure
If you complete less than 10 reps on Set 1, subtract 50 lbs and go to failure.
Rest between sets. We will post our results.
#2 BB Bench Press WITH BANDS (no pause)
Every 20 seconds, do 3 reps. The sets begin at 0:00 seconds, 0:20 seconds,
0:40 seconds, 1:00 minute, 1:20, 1:40, and 2:00 minutes. One round equals 21 reps.
You will do 2 rounds. Rest between rounds. Choose a weight that is light enough for
you to move the bar QUICKLY and EXPLOSIVELY on each rep. I don't care if you
have 5 lbs on each side of the bar. The objective here is BAR SPEED!!! If the bar is
moving slowly, then the weight is too heavy.
#3 Do 1 round of:
Hand Release Pushup - 40 reps
Air Squat - 30 reps
EZ Curl Bar Nosebreaker - 20 reps
BB Bench Press with a 2 second PAUSE at the bottom of each rep - 5 reps
