Stimulus

1) Build to a weight that you can do 10+ reps of and then do 5 sets of 5 reps with a 5s lowering of each rep. Focus on wrist, elbow, and shoulder position throughout, go fast on the way up while maintaining those three focal points

2) Each round should be completed in 4-5 minutes max. Break movements up early on to save on grip and shoulder burn.
