dropsets are fun!
 
That is a mint set of stairs too, having a couple of turns makes it more interesting. 12 repeats is mean bro, do you jog back down or walk a bit slower? ... or is it full noise up and down!!

JK

Full noise down will lead to an injury. I do full noise up (and alternate single step then double step each lap) and then jog back down.
 
The turns have decent platforms on them so you can easily drop for 10 pressups etc.

JK

Oh yeah, gonna be a lot of drop sets and super sets for the next few weeks.

JK

Rubber band pressups 10, 10, 10, 10 dropset 10 no band (do these with rubber band around hands and back - get a mean tricep overload at the top)
 
Superset 2

Tricep OH cable extensions - 10x44kg, 10x44, 10x44
