SUNS OUT GUNS OUT | WEEK 39 | 09/19/2021

 

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
PULL UP WARM UP
UPPER BODY BARBELL WARM UP

WORKOUT

Part 1

3-5 Rounds
Max Strict Chin Ups
Max Banded Chin Ups

Rest 3 Min Between Rounds

Score is total Strict Chin Up reps!

COACHES NOTES
If you are unable to do strict chin ups - no problem. Customize with 5 Sets of 7 jump and slow lower chin ups.

Even if you can only get like 2-3 strict chin ups per round. Still do that part.

Choose a band that helps, but not TOO much. We don't want you getting more than like 10-12 more reps with the band each time.

If you don't have a band you can do the strict chin ups and then a set of kipping regular pull ups OR you can do rows to failure.


Part 2

3-5 Rounds
Max Strict Dips
Max Skull Crushers

Rest 3 Min between rounds

Score is total Strict Dip reps!

COACHES NOTES
You can do the dips on a stationary dip station or on the rings. If you have neither you can try setting up 2 boxes, chairs, your counter tops -whatever.

If you are unable to do any strict dips. You may sub 5 rounds of 7 jump and slow lower, followed by the max skull crushers.

Choose a weight for the skull crushers that won't allow you to get more than 10-15 reps after the dips. So light, but not insanely light.

For the dips, make sure you get the shoulder below the elbow at the bottom and complete lockout at the top!


Part 3

Tabata Strict Press
(RESTING WITH BAR LOCKED OUT OVERHEAD!!)

4 Minutes of
20 Seconds ON
10 Seconds OFF

Barbell Strict Press

Score is total reps.

For the 10 Second OFF portion hold the bar locked out overhead!

COACHES NOTES
Do this with an EMPTY bar! If you don't have a barbell you may use dumbbells but go SUPER light.

Bar starts on the shoulder. When the clock starts you do as many reps strict press (no help from the legs) as possible.

When the clock hits 20 seconds you will "rest" in the lockout position at the top.

Repeat this 8 times or for a total of 4 min.

For each rep you must touch the shoulder at the bottom and get completely locked out with the bar over your head at the top!

Keep the ribs down and fight the urge to overarch!
