BENCH PRESS / DUMBBELL FRONT RACK STEP-UPS SUPERSET*

A1) Barbell Bench Press:
3 x 6

A2) Dumbbell Front Rack Step-Ups:
3 x 6

Use a controlled “faster up-slower down” tempo for both movements. Go heavier than last week. Use a box height that allows for “squat depth” on the working leg.

*Warm up and then perform a set of Bench Presses, followed by a set of Dumbbell Front Rack Step-Ups. Repeat for 3 work sets of each, resting 30 seconds to a minute between movements.

Exposure 6 of 8

4 Rounds
AMRAP 3 Minutes:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (add 1 rep per round)
Deadlifts 185/125
Strict Handstand Push-Ups

Rest 3 minutes

Start each round off at 1. The Deadlift should be a medium weight for you, something you could do easily a set of 10+ reps when fresh. The Handstand Push-Ups are strict today (no kipping). If these are easy for you, then add a deficit. If not, then scale range of motion (up to 2 mats) or to Box Piked or regular Push-Ups as needed.

Post rounds, reps, and Rx for each round to comments.
