You’ve now completed the beginner program! It’s time to repeat the same tests we performed at the start of this program. Remember to use the same strength resistance band and replicate the baseline testing conditions (exercise variation, rest time, testing order) as closely as possible.
Upper body tests
If you are unable to perform 5 unassisted chin-ups, it is recommended that you repeat the second block of this program. If you can perform 6+ chin-ups and 10+ dips, you can progress to the intermediate level B-Bars program.
