Man performing push press

Whiteboard Brief

– Strength: Today we’ll be building to a heavy set of 2+ in the Close Grip Floor press. Make sure to have spotters in place. Floor Press is likely in the 85% range compared to your regular Bench Press, but if you haven’t done a Close Grip variation before then expect this to be lower.
– Metcon: Our conditioning piece today is a 1:1 work-rest EMOM of gymnastics, weightlifting, and monostructural work today. Push your pace, keep your movement dialed in, and your rounds consistent.

A) Close Grip Floor Press

10-8-6-4-2+. Rest 2:00
– Warm-up to a weight with which you can get 10 reps, then add a little per set, decreasing reps accordingly until you get to the “2+” set.
– The goal of the heavy 2+ (AMRAP) set is to perform 2-5 reps with your heaviest load of the day. You should get at least 2 reps, but if you get more than 5 it wasn’t heavy enough. In that scenario, put more weight on and do it again.
