Dynamic Warm Up: 5min

Strength: 15min

Floor Press (9×3 @ 70% 1RM (3×3 Wide, 3×3 Normal, 3×3 Narrow))
NOTES
New DE Upper moment, Week 1 of 3. Over the next 3 weeks we will increase by 5% each week. Athletes will perform 3×3 wide grip, then perform 3×3 normal, then finish with 3×3 narrow. As Athletes move their grip in they will recruit additional triceps and back, making the movement possible at the prescribed reps. Coach proper set up on the bench (floor) press.
WHY?
Similar to the box squat the floor press is programmed to decrease the range of motion for quicker recover, and increase strength from the starting position by removing leg drive. The Athletes legs are to be bent, insuring proper midline set up. Decreasing lower back and shoulder tension.
Athletes should be able to floor press 100%+ of their conventional bench press, increasing conventional bench press lock out.
SET UP
Set up is similar to the bench press.

NOTES
Game Planning Fran….
This workout is all about pushing Athletes outside of their comfort zone. New Athletes should break the reps into multiple sets; 7-7-7, 5-5-5, 3-3-3. Experienced Athletes should strive to go unbroken.  Athletes should know their last ‘Fran’ score and modifications. If not Rx, Athletes should choose a weight that they can complete reps in max 3 sets. This is not meant to be a long WOD, sub 10min., budget 15min of your class time
