Thanks for your question. Here are two options for you. Do these as part of an interval type training, ie. 20 secs up, 20 sec. rest x8. Tabata intervals. or... What I like to do is do my heavy work first, then finish with these trying to be as explosive as possible. You'll sweat just as much as a heavy lift as its more like a speed press. Same force, lighter weight...depending on if you are good at pushups or not. ;) Hi Mat! Thanks for your question. Here are two options for you.

Is this intended to be a workout on it's own with multiple sets or something you could switch into your normal workout as another exercise? Chest is Wednesday, so I’ll give these a shot.
