Today’s full-body session pairs heavy strength movements with power, stability, and core work to build athletic and functional strength.

Choose loads that challenge you while maintaining clean form, rest as prescribed, and prioritize quality reps throughout the session.

The Breakdown

Incorporating the squat and jump pairing develops both force production and explosiveness.

The upper-body work balances pushing and pulling to support shoulder health and posture, while the Cuban press and Nordic curl reinforce shoulder stability and posterior chain strength.

It’s important that core training emphasizes control and anti-movement strength that carries over to compound lifts.

Finish the workout with functional movement to increase heart rate and reinforce total-body coordination.

Train with intention and finish feeling strong, not exhausted.
