Prepping for the APF-AAPF Orlando Barbell Florida State Meet - February 28, 2015. Qualified National Strongman competitor and will be competing this coming October, 2015. I am here to live, learn, and pass on.
Dynamic bench against bands
1. Bench against red bands
9 x 3 (wide, med, close)Used the elitefts™ Shoulder Saver Pad for the first time! It's great because you can utilize it in different ways like what I did:
2a. 5 x 5 (wide grip) on the shorter side 2b. 5 x 5 (wide grip) on the fatter side
I did this superset with a pause for each rep
3. Still using the elitefts™ Shoulder Saver Pad (fatter side), I put my grip closer and did 5 x 5 as a tricep accessory movement
4. DB floor presses 3 x 10
5. Bent over rows 3 x 10
6. Pull aparts x 100
And a big thanks to Mike, owner of the Battleaxe Gym, for representing!
This is what he had to say about it:
"The EliteFTS shoulder saver pad .. Solid way to simulate some board pressing and keep them shoulders healthy.. I train alone a lot and I can see this coming in handy especially as a secondary movement... Even has that little sink you get from the heavier foams but you don't get from the boards.. Solid little addition to the press world."
Thank you for being a part of my journey. Suggestions and comments are always welcomed!
