Practical Application

Last week I wrote on the benefits of lifting heavy, so this week I thought I would write up an example of how to put that knowledge into practice. This workout is designed for the intermediate to advanced lifter. All exercises are done for 4-8 reps and each group of exercises should be performed in a circuit, going through each circuit twice. Remember, if you can do more than 8 reps, than the weight is too light. This workout took me 25 min to do.

1.)
DB chest press
Lat pull-down
Squats
Bent-over barbell rows
Dips
KB swings

2.)
Bosu crunches (feet off of floor)
Bosu cross pikes (one leg bent on floor, touch opposite hand to opposite toe, like a V-Up)
Burpees
MB chest pass against the wall
Bicep curls

3.)
Band woodchops
Single arm band chest press
Full sit ups
Wall slides for shoulders
