NOTES:

For this workout you will choose between a ring/trx/bar in rack supine type row - OR you can do an upright row with your KB/DBs - OR - you could even do some sort of pull down with stretchy bands!  An upperbody pull is what we are looking for!

Whatever you choose make sure that you start with straight arms and pull all of the way to your chest. Keep the belly tight.  The more parallel you are to the ground for the supine rows the more difficult they become.

If you are doing the upright rows, make sure the shoulders are pulled back and down.  Pull the elbows high and outside and fight the shoulders rolling forward.

For the press you can either hold a single weight at the chest with both hands or 2 lighter weights (one at each shoulder).  Tighten the belly and press straight up.  Finish with the weight over the middle of the body, belly tight and biceps by the ears.

For the plate hops you will simply hop or skip onto something just a few inches off of the ground.  You could also sub skip overs where you would hop or skip laterally over a dumbbell or even a chalk line on the ground.
