Workout Flow:
-For today's Daily Sweat Workout, we will be performing 5 Chinups + 3 Dumbbell Bench Press in the same minute.
-The remainder of the minute is rest.
Focus Points:
-Choose a Chin Up Variation that will enable you to complete 5 reps each set unbroken before attempting your bench press.
-Banded Chin ups are definitely an option just be efficient with getting in and out of the band when transitioning.
-The dumbbell bench press total weight should be something you have the ability to perfrom 5-7 reps with when fresh but not much more.
-We want the weight to be heavy but doable for 18 minutes.
-Position shoulder blades down and back to create a position of leverage but also a safe position to press from with your shoulders.

-Perform all sets unbroken.
-Adjust loadings or exercise options to be able to achieve unbroken sets.
