“MURPH"…

•1 Mile Run
•100 pull ups
•200 Push ups
•300 Squats
•1 mile run
(Unpartitioned)

*As a team work Fabiana and Diane. 

In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005. 

RIP Lt. Michael P. Murph 

This workout was one of Mike's favorites and he'd named it "Body Armor". From here on it will be referred to as "Murph" in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you've got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Shoulders/Traps...

Six-Way-Delt-Raise - 15lbs

“This exercise makes for a great finisher after a shoulder workout. It'll hit all three heads of the delts. The key here is continuous tension, one of the key mechanisms for muscle growth.


You won't need much weight for this one. We're going for time under tension and burn.


Perform a lateral raise, followed by bringing the dumbbells together in front, then a front raise from that mid-body position. Now reverse the movements. That's one rep. If you do it right, you'll never lose tension on the muscles”. - T Nation

“This shoulder complex is going to cause the lactic acid to flow like a river. Just what the delts need for hypertrophy. The shoulders need plenty of time under tension (TUT) to grow. That means longer sets with lighter weights. The main thing to focus on is stimulating as much lactate build-up in the target muscle as possible. You need to have a high pain tolerance. Lactate accumulation through muscular work is maximized when the muscle is under tension for 45-70 seconds. This complex will take care of that”. - T Nation
