Instructions
Anti-Gravity Press
Place a bar on the ground behind the head of an incline bench.
Lay on the bench face down. With a pronated grip, pick the barbell up from the floor. Flex the elbows, performing a reverse curl to bring the bar near your chest. This will be your starting position.
To begin, press the barbell out in front of your head by extending your elbows. Keep your arms parallel to the ground throughout the movement.
Return to the starting position and repeat to complete the set.
Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up (Lunge style)
Lie on your back on the floor and press a kettlebell to the top position by extending the elbow. Bend the knee on the same side as the kettlebell.
Keeping the kettlebell locked out at all times, pivot to the opposite side and use your non- working arm to assist you in driving forward to the lunge position. Using your free hand, push yourself to a seated position, then progressing to one knee.
While looking up at the kettlebell, slowly stand up. Reverse the motion back to the starting position and repeat.
