Pose Like A Warrior

I skipped yesterday's training. Instead of just doing today's normal lower body session, I decided to do upper body today and we'll hit the lower body tomorrow. Then back to our normal Sunday rest day. I also added in some bodyweight movements at the end of the session as mobility / accessory work. 
Here's what we got done:
BENCH:
(95lb x3) 12x
SEATED DB PRESS:
(25lb x5) 3x
MACHINE CHEST PULLS:
60lb x12
(80lb x10) 4x
MACHINE CHEST FLYS:
20lb x12
(30lb x10) 4x
DB CURLS:
15lb hammer curls x12
15lb standard curls x12
15lb gladiator curls x12
15lb zottman curls x12
15lb reverse curls x12
BODY WEIGHT FINISHERS:
Downward dog toe tap/pushups x10 Push Up - Down Dog - Toe Touch - YouTube
Side lunge toe taps x10 (each side) Lateral Lunge + Toe Touch - YouTube
Warrior III crunches x10 each side I can't find a video of exactly what we did, but here's a video that will give you a good idea. It's basically a Warrior III yoga pose, arms outstretched, leg out behind you, and then bring arms and leg in to touch. How to do Warrior III | Virabhadrasana III Tutorial with Briohny Smyth - YouTube
Warrior III toe taps x10 each side. I couldn't find a video for this one either. But again, it's a warrior III pose, but you tap your toe on the ground, and raise your leg. 
••••••••••
I will tell you that those finishers sound so simple. I suppose they are simple but simple doesn't translate to easy. At least for us anyhow. I like them and I have more of them that I'll be adding in either to the end or the beginning to warm up. The side lunge with toe tap really should be a warmup so I'll be adding that to the beginning of leg day.
And now....I eat.
