Workout Plan: Test Week Day 2 – Incline Power

Purpose: To test and measure the maximum strength of the upper body muscles, focusing on the chest, triceps, and shoulders, specifically targeting the upper chest and front deltoids.

Warm Up:

3 rounds:

• 8 calories on any cardio machine (rower, bike, etc.)
• 5 IYTs
• 10 shoulder taps
• 5 scalp retractions
• 10 kettlebell bicep curls

Part A: Incline Power

Measure: Weight

• 2RM Incline bench press

Muscle Groups:

• Chest muscles: The incline bench press primarily targets the upper chest muscles (pectoralis major, clavicular head) while still engaging the overall chest area.
• Triceps: The incline bench press engages the triceps, helping to build and strengthen the muscles on the back of the upper arm.
• Shoulders: The incline bench press places more emphasis on the front deltoids, helping to improve shoulder stability and posture.

This workout plan is designed to test and measure the maximum strength of the upper body muscles, focusing on the chest, triceps, and shoulders, specifically targeting the upper chest and front deltoids. The incline bench press exercise will help to determine the 2-repetition maximum (2RM), which is an indicator of the maximum weight that can be lifted for two repetitions with proper form.
