Week 12 Day 3 Exercise 2 Barbell floor press and Narrow push ups
2m 36s
4 sets
20 light reps (possibly empty barbell) of floor press immediately followed by maximum amount of reps of narrow hand position push-ups.
15 heavier reps of floor press immediately followed by maximum amount of reps of narrow hand position push-ups.
12 heavier reps of floor press immediately followed by maximum amount of reps of narrow hand position push-ups.
10 heavy reps of floor press immediately followed by maximum amount of reps of narrow hand position push-ups.
Note: Increase weight on the barbell each set. Perform maximum amount of reps possible of the push –up until you can’t successfully complete 1 more rep with proper form. In a narrow hand position, your hands will be placed inside your shoulder area rather than wider regular push up hand placement and they should be right at the bottom of your bra line and at the beginning of your rib cage. This hand position places emphasis on your triceps. Get at least a minimum of 12 reps on the push-ups each set. See video for modification.
