5 One Arm Rows Each Arm

First time we have gone low reps on the deadlift in a long while. If you are confident with the movement then get a some weight on the bar and push for a heavy weight with good form.

Remember the 1 Arm Rows are as important as the deadlifts, as you get tired walk your feet back away from the wall. Also, if your palms are facing up that is more bicep and if your palm is facing down it is more back muscles and in the middle is a mix of both.

C. 10min For Reps

you should be aiming for about 4 to 5 rounds of quality reps, don’t sacrifice moving well to move faster, these bad reps do not give you any benefit. The final one, is an all out sprint, get as many rounds as fast as possible.

Practice your strict pullup variation. Keep the reps as solid as possible, controlled with no arching or chin reaching, upscale to strict chest to bar and with weight. Play around with different variations, if you have a few pullups and they will disappear quickly, so scale after a while to a band or a higher band position. We don’t expect you to do lots of reps.

Nothing complicated about this one, all weight focused, your muscles will fatigue before your lungs. If your back gets sore doing this workout, it is generally a sign of tight hips and weak glutes.

A workout we have done before, it is a great mix of movements that hit each body part. The workout gets progressively more intense as you progress through the movements. You get a good amount of rest after each round. Try and hit the same amount of reps in each round but do not sacrifice good reps for more reps (worst thing you can do)
