With the floor press you want to pause at the bottom allowing triceps to touch the ground, hips on the floor, and press the weight back up. Don’t lose tension!
In your warm-up sets, keep the rep range no lower than 4, no higher than 6. Make weight jumps based on feel. If it felt like the bar was light, increase a little more. If you started to struggle a bit, jump very small, or use that as your first set. Your first working set should be a weight you could get for 4-5 reps without question. After the first working set, once again, go by feel. If it felt like the weight of a PVC pipe, jump up a good amount (not too much. Always be safe). If the last rep was shaky, try a small jump. Think 2.5 lbs per side-kind of jump or less. Don’t forget, we have fractional plates in the cage. Use them during class to make a jump if need be.
