MONDAY UPPER HYPERTROPHY WORKOUT

WORKOUT OF THE DAY

YOUR ASSIGNMENT - UPPER HYPERTROPHY WORKOUT:


WARMUPS:

Amply stretch hamstrings, calves, quads, glutes followed by pogo hops and then jog in place.


ROUTINE:

The upper hypertrophy workout is 30-30-30s - our favorite! That's why we do them on Monday! Minimal equipment is needed for this one:

  • Standard push-ups (3 x 30 reps)

  • Standard pull-ups (3 x 30 reps)

  • Dips (3 x 30 reps)

  • Burpees (3 x 15 reps)

  • Ab-rollers (3 x 30 reps)

  • Jumping Jacks (3 x 30 reps)


If you don't have a dip bar, place a chair behind you. If you don't have an ab-roller, just do crunches. We like to move through this one 1 set at a time. 1 set push-ups, followed by 1 set of pull-ups and so on.



ALTERATIONS AND SUBSTITUTIONS:

Beginner? No problem, cut in half to 15 reps, and take your time, use bands to assist pull-ups and dips if necessary.


Advanced? Great, wear a weighted vest, double the reps, or even triple them if you're really feeling gritty!
