Workout 3

Warm-up- Band walk x1

Band pull-up x1 set (think “chest to the bar”)

Workout-    1 arm press- 3 sets of five

Go heavy and rest 2 min in between sets

Goblet Squat- 3 sets of 8

rest 1 min between sets

Finisher-  ”swings by ten”

Take a heavy two-hand swing bell and do as many sets as possible in 15  minutes.  Walk to the board and mark off each set.  That is your rest.  20 sets, or 200 swings is a good goal for the fifteen minutes.

Happy Friday and Have a good weekend!-Jake
