    Work up to a strong effort Push Press increasing through each set.   Remember this is a strength exercise!  It’s totally natural to turn this movement into a Jerk by re-bending the knees so most of us will have to make a conscious effort to push will the legs and then drive with arms while keeping the legs straight.

    Challenge your self to something new!  If you have been swinging the same kettlebell but having to break them up into sets see if you can make it through the entire workout unbroken with your normal KB or step up the weight you normally use if you’ve mastered it.

    Max Effort Power Snatch

    Spend some time working up to a 1RM Power Snatch for the day.  Work on dropping lower as the bar gets heavier!

    If you are new to lifting take the movement up to a moderately heavy load in small increments, attempting a few reps at each weight. Focus on performing perfect reps.

    8×3 Weighted Pull-Ups

    Perform 8 sets of 3 weighted pull-ups.  Keep the load the same for all 8 sets. If you are working on the bands use a band that has you working near maximal effort in the 1-3 rep range. If you have any bodyweight pull-ups at all ditch the band and get as many reps in as you can without assistance!
