Upper Body Weights

Although I don't believe in a workout program built around weights, I do believe weights can play a part in any workout plan. So today its time to hit the gym. This workout is to build strength and power. During the rest phase of the primary lifts we will be doing assistive work.

Dumbbell Bench Press 4 sets of 6 reps. 3 minutes rest between sets.
During the 3 minutes perform 8 reps of alternating bicep curls.
Pull ups 3 sets of 8 reps (wide grip). 3 minutes rest between sets.
During the 3 minutes perform 8 reps of lateral shoulder raises.
Bent over rows 4 sets of 6 reps (close grip). 3 minutes rest between sets.
During the 3 minutes perform 8 tricep extensions.




Do you wear your seatbelt while donning your SCBA. Check out this video for a great company drill that might save your life.
