Quick DE workout

StabilisingAfter a few days of feeling somewhat ordinary it was great to get under the bar once again - no matter how briefly.

Following the first part of last week's brief session I warmed up with a couple of sets of band push-ups; and Alberto, the regular push-ups do feel slightly easier afterward. I suspect I'll need to greatly increase my push-up endurance (three sets was beginning to wear me out) before I see any major difference. As for range - the bands kick in near lockout (perhaps the top 3" or so).

John, for the band benching I added a little weight to the bar (in addition to the bands), giving the dubious benefit of stabilising the bar a little whilst making sure I'll feel it tomorrow. Ouch.

Band push-up 2×10@white band, 10@bw
Bench (explosive, band) 8×3@30kg+doubled red bands
