Specific Prep
[12-18:00]
Coaching cues/focus:
DB Push Press:
As we get heavier in this week's progression, remind clients to keep their core engaged and back set to avoid that overextension of the lower back. One warm up set of a few reps with the verbal cue to brace belly and keep ribs down can help a ton as they progress into heavier loads today.
Supinated BB Row:
similar cue to the PP, however, we want that back flat and belly tight in a hinged position for the row. Again, one practice set with light weight with the verbal cues in the set up can help a ton. Another nice cue is "to get elbows high" so they can think "pull with the entire back, not just arms and shoulders.
PREP:
2 warm up sets each; building to starting weight for working sets
3-5 DB Push Press @ 30X1
7-10 Supinated Grip BB Row @2010
