P90x3 & T25 Hybrid workout schedule: upper eccentric

 Today was upper eccentric for the P90x3 & T25 Hybrid workout schedule. 

Required equipment:

Dumbbells - weight varies but no more than 50 lbs. needed
Pull-Up bar

The workout is tough and you can make it more difficult with heavier weights.  The main theme behind the workout is explode up and then slow negative (eccentric = when the muscle lengthens) The time under tension increases which allows for faster muscle growth.  The workout varies from curls to pushups to pull ups and even should presses.  Its a great upper body workout but lack in any cardio aspect.  Thats whats so great about a hybrid workout in that where one program has a shortfall the other program picks up the slack.
