// Upper-body strength training session – Athlete Team

This upper-body strength training session is from coach Max Schmarzo, from his programming subscription, Athlete Team. You’ll need access to a bench barbell, plates, and dumbbells.

“Athlete Team” is about training like an athlete, moving like an athlete and performing like an athlete regardless if you are playing competitively or not. No matter your age, developing and preserving your athletic abilities is arguably one of the most important aspects you can get out of training.
