This classic upper body workout is made up of two sequences: one long, flowing kneeling arm set that transitions straight into a kneeling push up finisher.
Be prepared to work your triceps, biceps, shoulders and upper back muscles as we begin in a kneeling position with single arm tricep extensions and flow on to layer an overhead press, around the worlds, offerings, underhand grip rows and more. We close this set with one final round of tricep extensions before transitioning straight into a push up sequence designed to get every last bit of work out of your triceps!
