One Arm Pushup Machine and More

Here are some different exercises and examples of how to construct a nice workout! I had pretty much completed all of the outdoor upper body days I had planned this summer, and it was still good weather so I decided to keep outside for as long as I could.

This workout was made of:
A1 Single Arm Pushups (with handle)
A2 Bodyweight Ring curls
A3 Pre-Loaded Single Arm Braced Lateral Raise with Sandbags.

FYI the single arm pushups are more difficult with the handle compared to just going on the ground.

The Pre-Loaded technique is where you do a partial range with a heavier weight than you can lift for the full range. Then, you decrease the load to a lighter weight and perform the full range! This technique works very well with lateral raises. Keep in mind, you are not trying to do a partial rep - you are doing the bottom third or whatever fraction of the full lift - that makes a difference in intent and how you fire your muscles. When you drop to a lighter load, it will feel really light and easy for the first few reps; then it gets very hard because of the cumulative/overall fatigue haha.
