CrossFit Mile Zero – Bodybuilding
Mayhem Bodybuilding Goals
Mayhem Bodybuilding is a stand alone hypertrophy focused program. You may layer this on top of some of the other Mayhem Athlete Program, but it is not designed to be performed on top of all other tracks each day. We will include pieces of some days in other programs as “ACCESSORY”. The goals are to stay focused and rest just long enough so that you can perform the next set with quality and control unless stated otherwise. Keep your attention of each set and keep your phone in your bag. Sessions are not done “for time” but treat them like you are limited on time. Keep a visible clock running to keep you accountable.

Ring Push-ups (5 sets: 10 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
Focus: Set up a pair of rings on a pullup bar and lower them until they are 2-3 inches from the floor. Assume a pushup position on the rings, with the hands/rings positioned below the shoulder and feet on the floor. Maintaining an engage core throughout, lower into a push until the chest makes contact with the top of the rings and then push up. Elevate the height of the rings to make this movement easier.

Chin-ups (5 sets: 10 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
Focus: Chin-ups should be done with a supinated (underhand grip). Rep is completed when chin passes the plane of the bar. Athletes should use a band across the rig if assistance is needed for quality reps.
Tricep Dips (4 sets: 10 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
Focus: Dips can be performed on either dip bars or two high boxes (allowing the body to pass between the boxes). Keep shoulders in an engaged position throughout the dips and the rest of the body in a strong “hollow position” if not using assistance. A band can be attached across the bars or one foot can be placed on the floor to assist.
Standing Barbell Curl (4 sets: 10 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
*Build to a light/moderate weight. Stay the same and focus on strict control throughout
Focus: Stay with a weight that will allow for control and minimal kipping of reps. Keep barbell slightly in front of the body at the bottom position to keep tension on the biceps throughout set (don’t go to complete loss of tension at bottom).
Standing Tricep DB French Press (4 sets: 12 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
*Build to a moderate weight, stay the same or build across sets
Focus: In a standing position, take one dumbbell and hold it by the upper DB head with arms extended overhead. Keeping the elbows tucked and pointed at the ceiling, lower the weight behind the head. Extend back overhead to complete. Be sure to keep core engaged and avoid overextension in the low back.

Single Dumbbell Waiter Hold Curl (4 sets: 15 reps)
*Rest 1:00-1:30 b/t sets
Focus: Using one dumbbell, grasp by one head of the dumbbell with both hands (allowing the second head to hang below the hands so dumbbell is vertical). Hand position should be so that the palms are facing more towards the sky rather than palms facing each other. Curl the dumbbell, showing control throughout.
