SUNS OUT GUNS OUT | WEEK 47 | 11/14/2021
 

This workout is the first workout from the new "SP Suns Out Guns Out: Series 1" - one of the new series you will be able to find on the new my.streetparking.com logging platform. COMING VERY SOON!

This is a series of 12 upper body (bodybuilding style) workouts focused on increasing muscle mass, stamina, and strength.

Each session should take around 20-30 minutes.


WARM UP
UPPER BODY DUMBBELL WARM UP

WORKOUT

5 Rounds

1 set of Bicep Curl 21's
15 Shoulder Press
10-15 Diamond Push Ups

Rest 2 minute between rounds

Score: Total Time (This doesn't mean go as fast as possible!)

Score: Shoulder Press Weight

Goal: Each movement unbroken. 18-23 minutes

COACHES NOTES
This one is meant to burn! Keep the weight light and set yourself up so that all three movements are performed unbroken for every set and every round. Choose a load on the curls that you can get all 21 reps done without putting the weight down. These are really meant to be done with an empty barbell or go with 10-20lb dumbbells. Remember this is 7 partial curls from the bottom up halfway, 7 partials from halfway to the top, then 7 full-range curls all in one set.

Keep the weight pretty light on the shoulder presses. 15 unbroken reps is a lot. We want the shoulders to be on fire. The movement should be slow and controlled. Don't speed up to try to get them over with!

For the diamond push ups, the close hand position is the most important part. So go to the knees or elevate the hands if you need to in order to get all the reps in.

The new SP logging system is coming soon! Once it is here you will find all of your favorite weekly accessory programs and Street Parking Extra Programs under "Extra Programs" and put together as series that you can follow at your own pace!

Street Parking Suns Out Guns Out 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 it's 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 BARBELL WARM UP
PULL UP WARM UP

WORKOUT

Part 1:

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Reps of:

Shoulder Press
Chin Ups

So you do 10 of each, then 9 of each, 8 of each....and so on until 1 and 1.

Score: Enter weight used for Shoulder Press.

COACHES NOTES
Reps unbroken if possible. Rest as needed between movements / sets.

Shoulder press starts with the bar on your shoulders, full grip with elbows in front. Feet are hip to shoulder width apart. Squeeze your butt, your quads and your belly. Keep your chest up, ribcage down. Press the bar straight up so you have to pull your face out of the way to clear a path. Finish with arms locked out overhead, biceps by the ears.

To lower, move your face out of the way and keep your elbows in front of the bar.

For the chin ups, these should be strict, so use a band or switch to a supine row with chin up grip.

Your grip will be supinated, meaning your palms facing you. Hands can be shoulder width or even even narrower.

Squeeze your butt, your legs and your belly. Draw your shoulders away from your ears before you pull. Chin should be above the bar at the top and arms straight at the bottom.


Part 2:

As many rounds as possible in 7 minutes of the following upper body 21 Complex:

7 Bicep Curls
7 Upright Rows
7 Shoulder Press

Use an empty bar or lighter single dumbbell for the complex.

Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + any Additional Reps

Goal: 10-12 Rounds (pick weight accordingly)

Put weight used in comments.

COACHES NOTES
These will be 7 full curls, right into 7 upright rows, right into 7 shoulder press. If you need to put the bar down to rest, try to do it between rounds rather than during a round.

If you want to get real crazy, use an overhand grip on the curls!

Make sure your arms are straight at the bottom, elbows stay pinned to your torso the whole way and your hands get as close to your shoulders as possible at the top. Make sure you keep your belly braced and your torso upright.

Same with the upright rows, belly tight and standing tall. Pull your elbows high and outside when you pull. Make sure they stay above the bar or dumbbells the whole way. Raise the weight up to about mid chest and lower. Use control all the way up and down.

WARM UP
PULL UP WARM UP
SHOULDER WARM UP

WORKOUT

Part 1 - Back and Bis!

4 Rounds NOT FOR TIME

Max Set of Strict Pull Ups
As soon as you drop off
10 Barbell or Dumbbell Bent Over Rows

Rest as needed between Rounds

Score is total number of strict pull ups. ***If you are customizing the pull ups, read the Coaches Notes for rep suggestions - Do NOT go for max reps with a customization!!!

Suggested Weight:
Men: 115-185# - OR - 50-70# DBs*
Women: 75-125# - OR - 30-50# DBs*

*If you go with dumbbells and they feel easy, perform the bent over rows with a 3 second negative

COACHES NOTES
If you choose the option to do this workout without a customization for the pull ups - you should be able to do a minimum of 5 Strict Pull Ups each time.

Customization options are either 7 - 10 banded strict pull ups - or 7-10 jump up with a slow negative. Do not exceed those numbers. We want to control the soreness.

MOVEMENT DESCRIPTIONS
For these pull ups - they should be strict - with complete extension of the armpit and elbow at the bottom - chin over the bar at the top. They need to be strict - but that doesn't mean super slow or anything.

As soon as you either can no longer do the regular pull ups - or you complete your 7-10 reps of scaled - you will come over and do either barbell bent over rows or dumbbell bent over rows.

For the bent over row, you will keep the back flat and pull the bar to the chest - just below the nipple. Keep the gaze up slightly and belly tight. Pull the elbows back.These should be difficult but nowhere near failure and no need to break.


Part 2 - Chest and Tris!

4 Rounds NOT FOR TIME

Max Set Dumbbell or Barbell Bench
straight into
Max Set Regular Push Ups

Rest as needed between Rounds

Score is total number from both movements.

Suggested Weight
Men: 115-135+# Bench
Women: 55-85#+ Bench

COACHES NOTES
If you cannot complete at least 8-10 bench reps with those weights (for the first round at least) then scale it down a bit. We also don't want you getting more than 15 per round or so either.

Same for the push ups. If you can't get at least 8-10 - go to the knees.

This is not a "girl" push up - it is a customized push up that will lower the amount of your body weight you are pushing up and allow you to do more reps! That is the POINT of this session.

MOVEMENT DESCRIPTIONS
For the bench reps the hands should not be too wide. Just outside the shoulders. Keep the butt on the bench and pull the shoulder blades back and down as you unrack the bar. Do NOT go to failure - especially if you do not have a spot! Be smart. Come all of the way down and lock out completely for each rep!

Once you can no longer complete any of those you will move on to the push ups. For both - NO sagging or snaking!

WARM UP
PULL UP WARM UP
SHOULDER WARM UP

WORKOUT

PART 1

4 Rounds


3-5 Weighted Pull Ups
5-7 Strict Pull Ups
7-10 Kipping Pull Ups

Rest as needed between rounds.

Customization options below!

Score - Total pull up count from all 4 rounds. Put how many you were getting for each section and any customizations used (weight used) in comments!

COACHES NOTES
Many of us will need to customize this one! No problem. You may try - 5 Strict, 7 Kipping, 10 banded. Or even further to 1-3-5.

Or you could go as simple as - 5 jump with slow lower, 7 banded, 10 ring row (or even barbell or dumbbell bent over row).

Whatever it is for you - just do: hardest, moderate, easiest version of a pull up type movement and feel free to change reps too!

These DO NOT have to be one big long unbroken set. BUT each part should be unbroken. SO you should do 5 unbroken weighted or difficult pull ups - the 7 of medium difficulty - then 10 of less difficult.


PART 2

3 Rounds of Bicep Curl 21's!!

7 Reps Curl from bottom to halfway up
7 Reps Curls from halfway up to top
7 Reps Curls full Range of motion

Go lighter than you think!

Score: Weight Used

COACHES NOTES
Anyone who has spent a lot of time in a conventional gym - knows about 21s right??

So these can be done with a barbell or dumbbells. Make sure on the bottom to halfway ones you start fully extended at the bottom.

Make sure on the halfway to all of the way up ones that you don't go lower than 90 degrees and come all of the way up.

On the full range ones - ALL of the way down and all of the way up!!

These should be done as 7-7-7 without putting the weight down!

WARM UP
FULL BODY DYNAMIC WARM UP
SHOULDER WARM UP

WORKOUT

4 Rounds Not For Time:

12 Dumbbell Bench Press
12 Banded Tricep Pulldowns or Skull Crushers
12 Diamond Push Ups
12 Seated Dips

Score: Put weight used for Dumbbell Bench Press

COACHES NOTES
Choose a variation on all of these that you can get all 12 reps in one set. Lying face up on the bench, start with the dumbbells outside your chest, elbows about 45 degrees out from your torso. Draw your shoulder blades down into the bench and keep them pulled back even as you press up. Keep your elbows below your wrists and press straight up until your arms are fully extended and perpendicular to the floor. Lower the DBs with control back to your chest.

For the skull crushers keep the shoulders back and down and bend only from the elbow - bringing the bar or dumbbells close to your "skull". Really extend the elbow hard at the top!

For the diamond push ups, keep your body in a rigid plank position. Hands together so that thumbs are touching and index fingers are touching. Point your elbows slightly back. Lower your chest and thighs to the floor. Keep everything tight and press straight back up until your arms are straight.

For the seated dips, plant your hands on a bench, box or chair and scoot your hips off the edge. Try to keep your legs straight or just slightly bent. Keep your torso close to the bench the whole time as you lower down until your elbows go just beyond 90 degrees, then press back up. Perform these slow.


Part 2

10-9-8-7...3-2-1 Reps of:

Plank Up & Overs
Wide Grip Push Ups
1/2 Push Up Hold (1 rep = 1 second)

Goal is to finish this in 12 minutes or less. Stop at 15 minutes if you haven't completed the reps by then.

COACHES NOTES
The way this works is: first you do 10 plank up & overs, then 10 wide grip push ups, then a 10 second 1/2 push up hold. Then you 9 of everything including a 9 second hold. Then 8, then 7 and so on down to 1. We want the holds to be done unbroken so if you need to, go to the knees or elevated!

MOVEMENT DESCRIPTIONS
For the plank up & overs, set up a medicine ball or stack of plates outside one hand. It should be 6-12ish inches high.

Start in a plank position (top of a push up) with arms straight, shoulders over wrists, heels over the balls of your feet.

Keeping your belly tight, quads engaged and back flat, walk one hand then the other to the ball, then over to the other side. Both hands must plant on the higher surface and both hands must plant on both sides of the ball/stack. Each time you plant both hands on one side of the ball/stack is 1 rep.

For the wide grip push ups, place your hands wider than shoulder width in your set up position. Keep your whole body in a tight rigid position as you lower your chest and thighs to the floor then press back up to lock out. These can also be done from the knees or with hands elevated.

Same with the half push up hold. From knees or toes, lower halfway down until your arms make a 90 degree angle. Hold there for the required time then press back up to the top to finish. Don't let your hips sag on this one, squeeze everything!!

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!

COACHES NOTES
For this part you go max pull ups right into max push ups. Then rest 2 minutes and repeat for 4 total sets.

Ideally, you should get 10 or more pull ups in the first round. If you need to, use bands, ring rows or bent over rows instead of pull ups. We want to see straight arms in the bottom and chin over the bar or chest contact with the rings, bar or DBs at the top.

Shoot for at least 15 reps on the push ups in the first round. If you need to on the push ups, go to your knees or elevate your hands to keep a rigid body position and achieve full range of motion.

WARM UP
UPPER BODY DUMBBELL WARM UP

WORKOUT

PART 1

4 Rounds of:


20 Alternating Single Arm Shoulder Press
200m Farmer Carry

REST 2 MIN BEFORE PART 2

Score: Weight used for Shoulder Press and Farmer Carry (Can totally add time in the comments!)

Goal: No more than 2-3 breaks per movement per round

COACHES NOTES
Choose a weight for the shoulder press that you could do unbroken for the first round and maybe the second. It's OK if you end up breaking those up once or twice after that.

Same goes for the Farmer Carry! You may actually want to break at the halfway point in the first round just to be safe.

ALTERNATING SINGLE ARM SHOULDER PRESS
You will have a dumbbell in each hand at the shoulders. Feet are between hip and shoulder width apart, even if performed seated. Keep the rib cage down as you press one DB straight up until your arm is fully extended overhead with your bicep next to your ear. Bring the dumbbell all the way down to the shoulder each time then press up with the opposite hand.

20 alternating will end up being 10 reps per side per round.

FARMER CARRY
You will hold a dumbbell in each hand. Keep your chest up, shoulders back and belly tight. Take rest rather than allowing yourself to fall into a bad position.

For 200m, it should take roughly 2 minutes. If it's much slower or you are breaking a lot, go to a single dumbbell and switch hands at the halfway point.


PART 2

4 Rounds of:


16 Push Up + Renegade Row
100m Overhead Plate Carry

Score: Weight used for Renegade Rows (Put Total Time in Comments)

Goal: Finish the whole thing under 12 min WITHOUT GETTING SLOPPY.

COACHES NOTES
Choose a customization and/or weight that will allow you to get the push up + renegade rows done in 2 minutes or less! Each rep of the renegade row will be push up + row right + row left. You should be knocking out the overhead plate carry in 1-2 "sets" so no more than one break!

PUSH UP + RENEGADE ROW
For the push up we want to see a rigid body position. No sagging hips or snaking. You will keep the belly tight. Hands are on the dumbbells. Go to the knees if you need to.

Chest and thighs touch the ground at the bottom. Lock out completely at the top.

For the rows you will stay in the plank/top of the push up. You will row one dumbbell to the rib cage by pulling the elbow back. Try to avoid rotating very much. Pull the dumbbell all of the way up for each rep then lower under control.

If you are struggling to maintain a tight plank position as you pull, trying lowering the weight or modifying to shoulder taps. You could even do a SUPPORTED single arm DB row by planting one hand against the wall and rowing 1/2 the reps with one arm, then switch and finish with the other.

OVERHEAD PLATE CARRY
You will hold the plate directly overhead with straight arms and biceps by the ears.

Keep your shoulders active the whole time by constantly pressing up on the plate as you move.

At the same time, draw the front of your ribcage down toward your hips to avoid overarching your back and losing core stability.

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!

Score: Weight Used for Curls (Note other weight(s) in comments)

COACHES NOTES
The pump is real on this one. Definitely feel free to adjust the weight for the different curl and tricep variations. You can note any changes in weight in the comments.

Make sure all the movements are slow and controlled. Pause for 1 second on both ends of each rep. You can move faster during the 4 minute AMRAP but keep the movements strict.

Dumbbell curls will be performed together with palms facing up. Keep the DBs from swinging back behind you on the way down.

On the skull crushers elbow and shoulder stay in a line and the only movement comes from the elbow joint.

Hammer curls will be performed with palms facing each other. Touch one head of the dumbbell to your shoulder and keep your elbows tight to the body the whole time.

For standing tricep extensions, with a dumbbell in each hand, start with biceps by the ears, elbows bent to allow rear head of DB to touch the shoulder. Keep the biceps by the ears and straighten your arms overhead. As with all overhead movements, keep your belly tight!

For concentration curls, you'll be seated and go one arm at a time. Brace yourself by pushing the back of your upper arm into your inner thigh, keep that foot firmly planted so your leg doesn't move. Start with the arm straight and curl your palm up as close to your shoulder as you can. Concentrate on that bicep!

On the bent over tricep extensions, plant one hand and one shin on a bench, DB in the opposite hand. Start with forearm vertical, knuckles down. Keep your elbows in place and extend your arm back until it is straight.

Chin ups you'll have an underhand/palm up grip. You can also do this with TRX/Ring or bar in rack rows.

Diamond push ups your thumbs and index fingers will be touching to ensure a close hand position. You can do these from the knees or even elevated.

WARM UP
UPPER BODY BARBELL WARM UP

WORKOUT

Part 1

100 Shoulder Press

Every time you break do 15 V-Ups

Score: Weight Used

Goal: Choose an appropriate weight to keep sets of 15-20 reps.

COACHES NOTES
Goal is to do this in as few sets as possible. Pick something that you can do at least 15 with each time.

On the shoulder press, make sure you avoid overextending or leaning back! Keep the belly tight and lower the weight with the elbows in front each time to avoid crashing into your collar bone. Come to complete lock out at the top with the biceps by the ears and the weight over the middle of your body!

Can be done with barbell or dumbbells.


Part 2 (Tricep Pump)

1 Round ONLY

Max Reps Skull Crusher
into
Max Reps Rolling Tricep Extension
into
Max Reps Bench Press

Score: Weight Used

COACHES NOTES
For this one you are looking for a weight that you can get at least 10-15 skull crushers before you have to switch to the next movement. (Weight will change from skull crushers to rolling tricep extension but you'll use the same weight on the bench press as you did the rolling tricep extensions!)

On the skull crushers you will lie flat on your back either on the ground, a box, or bench with the arms extended over the chest. The elbow and shoulder stay in a line and the only movement comes from the elbow joint. Lower under control and fire up!

On the rolling tricep extension, start lying on the floor or bench with a dumbbell in each hand, elbows bent with the back dumbbell head resting on each shoulder. From here, "roll" the dumbbells down by lowering your elbows to your sides then pressing your elbows to lockout over your chest. See demo!

You will then use the same weight and rep it out on the bench press until failure!

8-10 Ring Dips/Feet Elevated Parallette Dips

Rest 3 minutes before Part 2

Score: Enter weight used for Bent Over Row as your score - put DB Bench Press weight in notes.

COACHES NOTES
Both parts should take less than 40 minutes but less than 30 is probably moving too fast. Superset is 4 rounds of the first 4 movements, THEN 3 minute rest before starting the Tabata.

Movements should be slow and controlled with a 1 second pause on both ends. You can move faster during the push up/ring row finisher!

BENT OVER ROW
Keep the elbows tight and bring the bar to just below the chest. Keep the belly tight. Bring the bar back to just below the knee with the arm straight at the bottom. No kipping or pulling your CHEST down!

DB BENCH PRESS
Choose a weight that you can definitely get 10 reps. You may sub barbell bench if you do not have appropriate dumbbells.

PULL UP
We recommend strict pull ups for this one so use a band if you need to but control the descent and be sure to avoid the bounce out of the bottom.

Whatever you choose make sure that you start all of the way at the bottom and either get the chin over or pull the chest all of the way up at the top!

RING DIP
Keep your elbows in tight and shoulders slightly in front of your hands for the dips. Choose a variation that you can get the reps for each set, adjust on the fly if you need to.


PART 2

8 Minute Alternating "Tabata"

20 Seconds Push Ups
10 Seconds Rest
20 Seconds Ring Rows
10 Seconds Rest

Repeat this cycle for 8 Total Minutes

COACHES NOTES
Tabata is max effort, whatever you got left in the tank, use it! This will be:
20 seconds max Push Ups / 10 seconds rest
:20 max Ring Rows / :10 rest
:20 max Push Ups / :10 rest
:20 max Ring Rows / :10 rest
...
Keep going for 8 minutes at which point you've done 8 rounds of each movement.

PUSH UP
We want to see a rigid body position with shoulders above or beyond the wrists and hands just wider than shoulder width. Squeeze your butt, your thighs and your belly. No sagging hips or snaking.

Keep your elbows within 45 degrees to the body as you lower your chest and thighs to make contact with the floor. Stay engaged. Press back up to the the top until arms are totally straight. If 12-15 aren't going to happen after the first set - go to the knees or elevated push ups!

RING/TRX ROW
Grab the handles or rings and lie back until your elbows lock out completely. Just remember that the more parallel your body is to the ground - the more difficult these become. You can step forward to make them more challenging or backward to make them more accessible. Keep the body rigid and belly tight - and pull all of the way to your chest at the top. Keep your elbows close to your sides and lock them all the way out at the bottom each time.

PART 3

3 Sets

10-15 Upright Rows

COACHES NOTES
The upright rows should be super light. Move nice and slow to make sure your shoulders stay in a good position. For the dips, choose a variation that allows you to do 10 unbroken. You can do rings, parallel bars, parallettes, banded, toe assisted, or between two boxes.

UPRIGHT ROW
The upright rows are performed standing up straight holding dumbbells or a barbell with a close grip (less than shoulder width) at your waist. Pull the load in a straight vertical line to just below your collarbone. Elbows should stay above the load and go wide as you lift.

DIP
Start at the top of the rings (or stationary bar) with your elbows fully locked out, palms turned forward slightly, and shoulders pressed away from the ears. Lower your torso down, keeping your elbows back and tight to your sides. Make sure your shoulder is lower than your elbow at the bottom. Then press into the rings, keeping them close to your sides. Lock out fully at the top.
