SEATED ROW

CLOSE-GRIP BENCH PRESS

Hold an EZ-curl bar above your chest with your hands as close as possible. Lower the bar, and then push it back

NEUTRAL-GRIP LAT PULLDOWN

Attach parallel-grip handles to a lat pulldown station and take a seat. Pull the handles to your chest. Return to the starting position. Do 12 reps.

DIP

Grasp the bars of a dip station and lift yourself so your arms are straight. Lower yourself until your upper arms dip below your elbows. Push yourself back up. Do 20 reps.
