Levels 2-4

20 Minutes E2MOM (10 sets)
1. 4 Bench Press at 75% of 1RM
2. 4 Pendlay Row at ~50% of 1RM Deadlift

Since many of you will be sharing a platform it is going to be essential that you move quickly on and off the bench, get set, and hit the reps. If there are 2 people on a platform, each one should start at a different exercise and switch off on opposite minutes. More than 2 and you will have to coordinate amongst yourselves to stay on the right interval.

The Pendlay Row is a barbell bent over row in which the bar comes to rest on the floor at the end of each rep. Set up as if you were going to perform a deadlift, shoulders over the bar, chest almost parallel to the floor. Grip the bar firmly and pull it into your belly using your arms and lats. YOUR LEGS SHOULD NOT MOVE DURING THIS LIFT.
