Foam Roll/Trigger/Warm-up/Mobilise/Activate

 

Note:

NB – If you do not have any weights (due to the hand back) – try use a backpack with some books/other heavy objects in it!

Score = Total Load (Body Weight + External Load x Reps for all 5 sets)

 

NB – Tempo here – Take 3 sec to go down, hold 3 sec in the hole, 3 sec to go up!

NB – You choose your rep range based on the load you have. The score is Total Loading, including Body Weight (see below)!

 

Equipment Options:

BB/DB/KB/WB/Bumper/Back Pack or any heavy object you can hold in the Front Rack position.

NB If you have a lighter implement like a DB or KB we are going to increase the reps.

BB/Bumper/WB – 2 Hands

Rest of the implements are 1 Hand
