Pushing challenge
9 min EMOM

At the end of the EMOM, rest 3 mins, then:
1 set of 50% of your pushup up benchmark from 12/2
Russian push-ups – do them with your knees on the ground if normal pushups are too challenging. The goal is to work on the transition from forearm plank to bottom of the pushup position.
** downscaled” pushup: one level of difficulty down from your 12/2 benchmark. For instance, if you did strict HSPU, do kipping. If you did push ups, do banded pushups (light band hooked on the rig and around your chest), or elevated pushups on box.
