Upper Body Ladder Workout!

Hey everyone,

To help battle the holiday bulge, we have put together another ladder workout for your upper body.  This workout consists of four exercises, completed two at a time.



Part I
  1. Underhand chin-ups
  2. Kettlebell one-arm presses (for simplicity of demonstration, Alex shows this exercise alternating each arm per set; however, you should try to do an even number of reps on each side during the workout)

Part II
  1. Kettlebell boxer press (one rep = right arm and left arm press)
  2. Jungle Gym reverse pushups

As with the previous lower body ladder, this is an efficient workout that can also be quite challenging when you select a heavy weight and minimize your rest between exercises (and between parts 1 and 2).

It is also easy to design your own ladder workouts.  Just pick a few exercises and a starting point (we normally count down from 10 reps).  That's all there is to it!  Let us know how you like ladder workouts!
