Scaling:
Today’s workout is a classic heavy day. All athletes can perform this workout as prescribed. Athletes who have a front-rack limitation can use dumbbells and go as heavy as technique will allow. No matter your experience, you should prioritize maintaining sound mechanics before trying for max loads. If you are able to maintain sound technique, add weight across as many sets as possible.
Intermediate option:
Same as Rx’d.
Beginner option:
Same as Rx’d.
Coaching cues:
Struggling to keep an upright torso in the push press? As you dip, push your knees forward and lower your hips straight down over your heels, imagining your back is moving up and down a wall behind you, then drive that bar to the sky!
