Strength

Bench Press @ 21X1

  • x 3-4 x 4 sets

Notes

Today’s strength is bench press. You will complete 4 working sets of 3-4 reps. Each rep is performed with a :02 descent, :01 pause on the chest, and :01 pause at lockout. You can build throughout the 4 working sets, but all 4 working sets should be within 20% of your top load.

Aim for the top end of the rep range each set. If you can maintain the tempo for all 4 reps, add weight.

  • 6 Kettlebell Snatch (alternate arms each round)
