Can you read our squat face?
The Bells Up TV Intermediate Series continues with a 12-week program focused on goblet squats, strict presses and push ups. Intermediate Series 3 (2021) brought the kettlebell snatch in to our lives, while Intermediate Series 4 (2021) is all about upgrading technique and progressive overload strength programming (adding reps over time to build strength). The goal of this program is to make bell size jumps for double bell presses and goblet squats, while working through total body strength sets.
Test Movements: goblet squats, push ups, double presses, ballistic movements
