When will bench dips ever get easier ?! 😅

Enji

A workout dedicated to the chest and triceps, and finishing with some core work.

3 sets
10 reps
controlled tempo
60s rest

- Lying on a bench, lift a pair of dumbbells to the starting position (just outside the chest)
- Press the dumbbells up to straight arms
- Lower the dumbbells with control back to the starting position

A "superset" is an exercise sequence where you do the prescribed exercises one after another. 

In this superset, you will do:

A -Hex Press
10 reps
controlled tempo
No rest; go directly onto B

B - Incline Push Ups (can do regular push ups if you've worked up to those now!)
10 reps
controlled tempo
60s rest, then got back to A

Repeat this superset 3 times.

- Lay down on bench with a dumbbell in each hand
- Place the dumbbells together side by side and press them up over your chest  
- Keeping the dumbbells squeezed together lower them back to your chest

Dumbbell Hex Press

- Stand facing the chair, table, or the edge of a bed
- Place your hands on the edge of the bench just slightly wider than shoulder width
- Your arms are straight, but your elbows are not locked
- Align your feet so that your arms and body are completely straight
- Bend your elbows to slowly lower your chest to the edge of the bench, leading with the lower bra line
- Keep your body straight and tight throughout the movement
- Push your body away from the bench until your elbows are extended, but not locked

Incline Push Ups

Chest & Tricep Superset 7 (Home)

4 sets
AMRAP (as many reps as possible)
controlled tempo
60s rest

- Place your hands on the front edge of the bench just outside hips
- Move forward off the bench with arms extended and shoulders down 
- Bend at the elbows to lower your body
- Elbows should bend straight back 
- Extend your arms engaging your triceps back to starting position

Bench Dips

A "superset" is an exercise sequence where you do the prescribed exercises one after another. 

In this superset, you will do:

A - V Ups 
15 reps
controlled tempo
No rest; go directly onto B

B - Bicycle Crunch
15 reps each side = 30 reps
controlled tempo
60s rest, then got back to A

Repeat this superset 3 times.

- Lay with your legs and arms extended 
- As you raise your legs, reach your fingers toward your shins and raise your upper body off the floor

Modification - do these as single leg raises if the double leg raise here is too challenging.
