STIMULUS and GOALS

Stimulus for the workout is all about managing shoulder fatigue while keeping a steady pace under heavy duress. The combo of mobility with high skilled movements will test you in ways that you cant imagine.

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW

Dumbbell Push Press: Weight is going to be heavy so it’s important that you only pick the dumbbell up when 10 reps is in your wheelhouse. Drive through the floor and pop the hips with all your might to launch then dumbbell overhead. If you plan to break before the lunge then try to get 8 or 9 reps before resting. This will allow for small work before the lunge.

Dumbbell Snatch: Same strategy as the push press. Try to stay unbroken if possible. If rest is needed then get over the halfway point before dropping. Touch and Go, Be Explosive!.

Lunge Walk/ Handstand Walk: Both of these movements will be challenging but only should be performed if unbroken is possible (scale distance if needed). Stay steady on the lunge while pressing hard up on the dumbbell and remember to actively breathe through the handstand walk.
