Although it’s possible to reload and use the stretch shortening reflex in the push press today (like in Fight Gone Bad), you’ll probably need to lower the bar and completely reset yourself for the 2nd rep. Take about 15-20 minutes to find the heaviest weight you can do for 2 reps. Then it’s 12 minutes of conditioning. Choose a pull up progression that’s a bit harder than what you’re used to. A thinner band, box pull ups (like we do for ring dip progressions), even ring rows can be made harder by standing farther forward.
