Technique Practice/Low Intensity Exercise

Normal foam rolling + warmup
Snatch Grip Deadlift
- 65#, 12 reps
Walking Lunge
- 12 steps (each leg)
DB suitcase deadlift
- 25#, 12 reps (each hand)
Barbell Floor Press
- 45#, 12 reps
Chin Ups
- 12 reps
Cable Push-Ups, feet elevated
- 8 reps
Box Jumps
- 15 reps

Decided to practice some phase 3 exercises so I wouldn't be doing them for the first time next week.
I saw somebody else in the gym doing cable push-ups, so I decided to try them out--they're harder than they look! Definitely harder than bosu push-ups.
