Classic Push/Pull day today! The Strength is a slightly different format than what we’ve seen before, but it’s a great opportunity for you to get a little bit more of what you want out of it today!
In the Workout, we’re carrying over the push/pull theme with a heavier barbell and a more complex gymnastics movement. While it seems like a pretty balanced workout, there is a kicker- every 3 min, we’ll stop and perform 12 Hand Release Push-Ups! While these push-ups are a horizontal push rather than vertical, they’ll still tire out the shoulders more for the Push Press- keep this in mind when deciding on the weight you should use.
