100 Reps

Post Push Press Loads and Workout Time to Comments
For the Push Press, take 20-25 minutes to warm up and set a 1RM for the day.  You should work up to the heaviest weight that you know you can get, which is probably more like 98% of your true 1RM.  It is not necessary to work to failure.  It’s ok to leave something in the tank for next time. Don’t forget to put your PRs up on the PR BOARD!

For the conditioning workout, use 80% of the Push Press 1RM you just determined for the shoulder to overhead movement.  You can press, push press, push jerk, or split jerk to get the bar from your shoulders to overhead.  Take the bar from the floor on the first rep.  Pullups can be kipping, chin over the bar.

For the finisher, grab a light band and perform 100 total Band Pull Aparts.  These should be fast reps in sets of at least 20.  You’ll get a nice stinging sensation in the back of your shoulders.

ENDURANCE WORKOUT tonight at 6pm!
