40 Goblet Thrusters
Goal: <7:00
CAP: 12:00
STIM: DB Strict Presses are ideally hard enough where you’re only doing 5-8 reps on one arm before switching to the other. You should NOT be able to do 15-25 reps on one arm before switching (if you only have access to light dumbbells then it’s okay). Complete the push-ups in 6-8 sets. Touch that chest to a target every rep. Goblet thrusters should be completed in 2-3 sets.
