Upper body push<\/p>\n
In the Strength Intensity section, the bench press has switched to a 1:1\/4 bench press with a different rep scheme. Last week included 8 sets of 3 reps. This format generally feels easy for the first several sets and difficult for the last 2-3 sets. Today’s format for the 1:1\/4 bench press is 4 sets of 6-8 reps. Each set should be challenging. You must push the intensity more than last week because you only have 4 sets this week.<\/p>\n
The Strength Balance section should feel similar to last Monday, with a few different movements mixed in to explore some new positions.<\/p>\n
The Conditioning format is slightly different this week, but the pacing should feel consistent with last Sunday. Although the reps start low, do not go out too fast.<\/p>\n
