The workout
This is a moderate strength workout. Perform each move to the best of your ability and shoot for no rest between each move. The key here is to go as hard as you can during each move, and rest for 90 seconds at the end of each set. Repeat this 4 to 6 times to complete the workout.
Exercises
Chest Press // 10 reps
Walk out to a distance that suits you. Then on the eccentric (lowering) phase count to three before pressing your arms back out.
Beast Push-Ups // 10 reps
Wrap the Son of the Beast around your hands so it is on the inside of your elbows before getting into plank position. Be sure at the end of each rep to do a frontal lift.
Alternating Isometic Row // 6 reps
Pull back the Son of the Beast and do a row with one hand while the other stays in an isometric hold. Perform three reps on each hand before alternating.
Double Slams // 20 slams
Go as hard as possible, and then take your rest.
