Quick and Dirty Uppers

brief warmup

workout:
5 rounds of
10 overhead press (2x65#, 3x75# [SS did last four reps of last set as push press])
10 decline situps (2xBW, 3xBW+25#)
with 30 sec rest between sets

then 3 minutes rest

5 rounds of
5 dips
5 strict pullups (SS BW, ED assisted 40#)

cooldown:
1 min each of
front plank
left side plank
right side plank

All in all a quick workout. We were under time constraints so this did the trick.

I actually thought this wasn't bad. A bit of tweaking and we should name it. The difference between 65# and 75# was serious, though. I think I would have been supper smoked if we'd tried to make it through all 5 sets of shoulder press at that. (70# next time). We need to up the weight on the inclined sit-up. What else would be good to balance this out? The crazy idea of bar-dips? Some back extensions?
