SOGO | WEEK 06 | 01/31/2021

 

Street Parking Suns Out Guns Out is posted once a week - on Sunday. These workouts are great for those interested in adding in more work building strength and stamina through more isolation type movements in the upper body.

We typically suggest these workouts be added in as more of a "finisher" after the main workout that day. They can also easily be added to many of the Power, Oly, or Butts and Guts workout - to make a session all its own!

Add this in wherever makes sense for your schedule - and make sure to check out the daily write-up for A, B, and C to see where these workouts fit in best each week!


WARM UP
Upper Body Dumbbell Warm Up

WORKOUT

Every 5 minutes for 30 minutes, perform:

5 clockwise/5 counter clockwise Plate Halos
10 Upright Rows
20 Push Up + Pull Across
12 Ring Rows/Supine Barbell Rows

Suggested weights:

Halos:
Men: 25-45lb plate
Women: 15-25lb plate

Upright Rows:
Men: 25-40lb DBs
Women: 15-25lb DBs

Score: Enter the weight you used for the upright row - enter other details in comments.

Goal: Perform slow controlled movements moving from one right into the next. This should give you about 90 seconds to recover between rounds.

For the plate halos, stand holding a plate (or single DB) in front of your face. Rotate the plate around your head one direction 5 times then rotate it 5 more times the other way. Keep your belly tight!

For the upright row, stand up tall with a dumbbell in each hand. Keep your chest up and belly tight as you pull the dumbbells up to your chest. They should stay close to your body. Elbows shouldn't really go higher than your shoulders. Lower back to your waist with control.

For the push up and pull across you will start in a plank position with your dumbbell just to the outside your right hand. First do a push up, then with your left hand, reach under and grip your dumbbell. Pull it to the left side of your body.

Keep your belly tight and butt down. Do another push up then reach under and across with your right hand and carry the DB back to the right side of your body. Choose a load you can carry the DB all the way across to the outside of your opposite arm each time. One push up + pass though = 1 rep.

For the supine barbell row, set the bar in the rack low enough that you'll be at a challenging angle. Same if you are doing ring rows, find the right angle!

Position yourself under the bar/rings with arms straight, shoulders slightly behind the bar/rings. Keep a rigid body position with knees, hips and shoulders in a straight line. Pull your body up to make chest contact with the bar or rib contact with the rings and lower back to straight arms.
