***You should aim to add 5lbs to the dumbbells from your max last week.

Workout:

11 minutes:

6 Dumbbell Grip Push-ups
8 Dumbbell Hang Cleans to Squat (1 DB = 10% max squat)
10 Elevated Reverse Lunges (5 each side)

 

Cooldown:

Shoulder Flex Pull: A static hold – 2-3 sets of 30s
*If you can not grip a plate behind you due to mobility, start with a PVC bar with a light weight on it.  Do NOT go heavy on this. You want your shoulder blades retracted throughout the movement. This is for flexibility, it shouldn’t be done at maximum effort
