COACH'S NOTES
Today we are foucsed on complimenting the bench press and improving it through these isolation exercises.
-Having strong lats allows for a good base and platform in our bench press setup hence the supinated rows.
-The floor press is improving a specific range of motion to help improve our top half of the bench press.
-The floor press will also help practice without having momentum out of the bottom.
-The hollow rocks are there to connect everything together. Having a strong midline/core will ensure we transfer our energy efficiently.
