Main work
- Reverse band bench (all wide grip) 10x3x80%
you should have a 1rep max reverse band from last week - Bench Press Straight Weight Top Set: 2 Sets, Close Grip Bench Press, 8 Reps increasing 5 pounds from the week before. If you are just starting, start with around 75% of your max. If you get to a week where you fail on this set, change your grip and rep scheme (choose from 8 reps, 5 reps, or 3 reps) and decrease your initial starting weight by about 10% of what you failed at. **FOR EXAMPLE: If you come to a week where you fail, making only 6 of your 8 reps at 225 lbs. close grip, the following week switch
**NOTE- SKIP THIS if you're starting feel overworked or have tweaks in shoulders or elbows
