For Quality…

3 Rounds:

  • 8 Dumbbell Incline Bench Press
  • 12 Banded Pull-Aparts

Strength

You may wish to start the bar in a lower rack positioner (maybe around knee level). When removing the bar from the lower rack, stand all the way up first. Establish your spinal position here, before bending over. Each set should be comfortable.


Side Note: if you are further along and this movement may not be comfortable any more, so switch to dumbbell bent over rows and do 10 reps instead of 5 at a light comfortable weight.


  • 5 x 5 Bent Over Row

Conditioning

Complete:

10-8-6-4-2

Dumbbell Thrusters
