Upper Body:

Welcome back to another training cycle of AESTHETIC!

On Sundays, we will follow the format below for the next six-week training block.

Strength Intensity 1: Each week will be a horizontal push variation. The first week will be an incline bench press; the second will be a dumbbell bench press. Both weeks hit similar muscle groups and movement patterns with subtle variations, allowing for a broader movement vocabulary and mental stimulation throughout the cycle.

Strength Intensity 2: Each week will be a delt raise and vertical push superset. This continues with the theme of the day of upper body pushing.

Strength Balance: he PUSH giant set will focus on a bench press or bench fly progression paired with a pushup and a tricep exercise. Expect the triceps to be smoked by this point by squeezing all remaining juice out with this tri-set.

Push Intervals: To continue with the day’s theme, the conditioning will be biased toward upper-body pushing exercises. Expect bodyweight pushing movements like dips and some abdominal work to pair with it or some posterior shoulder and scapular stabilization work.
