RPE Scale (No Measure)

We want the programmed RPE to be based off of our first few sets. Naturally as we get later into the sets what once felt like a 5/10 RPE will begin to get more difficult, but should remain doable and safe for all sets.

**RPE = Rate of Perceived Exertion**

RPE 10 = 0 reps left (max effort)

RPE 9.5 = Maybe 1 rep left

RPE 9 = 1 rep left

RPE 8.5 = 1-2 reps left

RPE 8 = 2 reps left

RPE 7 = 3 reps left

RPE 6.5 = 4 reps left

RPE 6 = 6+ reps left

RPE 5.5 = 8+ reps left

RPE 5 = 10+ reps left

INSTRUCTIONS

These exercises are designed to give you a good “pump” for the day. It’s a mix of bodybuilding-type movements, CrossFit-type structure and/or movements and aerobic work.

The intensity is designed to be moderate! This is so you can come in and do a workout to get a “pump”, sweat a little and get out of breath. Ideally, you can also do it with friends!

Many of these exercises are drawn from or built on recent workouts by Rich. You can come and do them on a day when you don’t feel like doing as much intensity with our other more CrossFit-based pieces, or when you want to change up your bodybuilding style. Have fun with them!

Don’t do this exercise with the rest of the bodybuilding track. It’s meant to be performed alone for the day. We recommend performing these exercises as the ONLY bodybuilding for that day and the next day (for example, if you do the 3 functional push-ups in a week, we don’t recommend doing any other bodybuilding exercises, except the 3 power lifts – Squat, Deadlift & Press).
