Aim for as many rounds as possible within 12 minutes. Choose a challenging enough weight that 8 reps is near failure.

GOAL
You're only as good as your weakest arm. Unilateral pressing to develop strong pecs, shoulders, and triceps 

DETAILS
1. Start sitting upright on a bench. Dumbbell on each knee with a 90 degree elbow.
2. Use your knee to hike the weights up to your chest height as you lay back on the bench. 
3. Immediately press out of the first rep, that may be the trickiest part.
4. Elbows are 45 degrees angle your body and you got that right triangle in yo elbow. 
5. Control the weight as it descends. Lower elbows to parallel or just below for happy shoulders and strength building.
6. As you're pressing up, squeeze the chest.  
7. Wrist is directly over elbow. And wrist is neutral. 

CUES
- Heels Grounded
- Elbows Just to Parallel
- Shoulder Blades Back and Down
- Wrists Neutral

Dumbbell Bench Press

GOAL
Goddamn this is tough. But honestly we need weight to carve some abs in. Go as heavy as possible for the time allotted. 

DETAILS
1. Get on your hands and knees.
2. Add a weight plate or dumbbells on your mid back.
3. Have someone assist if needed.
4. Get in a perfect plank position.
5. Feet together, squeeze your butt and exhale through the pain.

CUES 
- Squeeze Butt
- Crunch Abs into Spine
- Hollow Rock

Weighted Plank

12 Min AMRAP

GOAL
Dumbbell press with rotation 

1. With back on bench, get a proud chest and lock in the dumbbells with elbows at 45 degrees from your body.
2. With an underhand position, begin to press the dumbbells overhead while rotating your shoulders internally. 
3. After a second pause at the top, begin to lower the dumbbells to the original position by rotating the palms of your hands towards you. 
4. Lower slow, pause and press to repeat. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Strong Press 
- Slow Negative

Incline Bench Arnold Press

GOAL 
Build boulder shoulders and that v-taper

DETAILS
1. Lock in dumbbells overhead on an incline bench. 
2. Be sure to keep full control of the dumbbells at all times. Then breathe out and push the dumbbells up with your shoulders.
3. Lock your arms at the top, hold for a second, and then start slowly lowering the weight. Lowering the weights should take about twice as long as raising them.
4. Proud chest and control the movement. 

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Squeeze from Chest

Incline Dumbbell Press

GOAL
Tricep crusher in a pressing movement 

DETAILS
1. Lay on a bench. 
2. Squeeze shoulder blades back and down.
3. Bring the weights together and at the top. 
4. Push them together, squeeze your chest as hard as you can. 
5. Lower slowly by pushing elbows down towards our hips. 
6. Squeeze your triceps to press up 

CUES
- Lower Weights Below Nipple Line
- Elbows Close to Ribs
- Elbows Towards Hips

Hex Press

Pump

GOAL
Burn em brah. This is the optimal exercise for building rounder shoulders to trick people into thinking you have a tinier waist #TrickorTreat

DETAILS
1. Grip can vary. Neutral grip for basic life or internally rotate with the dumbbell slightly in front of your hip to target that rotator cuff (lighter weight).
2. Start at the hip and raise up to the shoulders. The dumbbells should be a few inches in front of your body to move in your scapular plane.
3. Elbows are slightly bent and you're initiating the movement with your shoulders.

Pro-Tip: We're going for blood flow on this. No need to get real heavy, just go lighter and check that ego. 

CUES
- Retract Shoulder Blades
- Elevated Sternum 
- Reach Away 
- Tuck Your Ribs

Dumbbell Lateral Raises

GOAL
Pull back to strengthen your retraction muscles aka traps, rear delts, erectors

DETAILS
1. Cable band is set to right at shoulder height.
2. Retract scapulas back by pulling with your elbows. 
3. At the end of the rep, your wrists are slightly above your elbows. It's almost a half scarecrow position or like a "Put your hands up" type position.
4. Control the negative and return to the start keeping your shoulder blades retracted. 

Side note: This is a very weak position and harder than just a typical row so don't be afraid to go lighter and more for blood flow.

CUES
- Retract & Depress Shoulder Blades
- Wrists above Elbows
- Proud Chest

Face Pulls

Accessory

GOAL
Overload the chest with an extra stretch and weight 

DETAILS
1. Place hands on a couple of weight plates.
2. Add a weight plate to your back or do bodyweight.
3. Begin in the bottom of you push up.
4. Tighten up your body, squeeze your butt and crunch your abs.
5. Press up in one motion. 
6. Exhale and return to the ground to rest your chest. Repeat. 
 Note: If this is too difficult, do bodyweight worm push ups on the deficit.

CUES
- Squeeze Butt
- Strong Press
- Exhale 
- Externally Rotate  
- Neck in Line with Spine

Deficit Weighted Push Up

GOAL
Get in a stacked position and build some shoulder and oblique strength 

DETAILS

5. Switch sides.
