Finisher:
1)The act of getting one last-blast before calling it a day.
2)A dedicated practice time after the bulk of the work has been done.
The art of the finisher:
#1)Blast through the 'main-course' of your workout.
#2)Pick a category of movement you did not address in the main-course (Weightlifting/Gymnastics/Monostructural activities). Or simply select a movement/pattern or two that were not expressed earlier.
#3)Recover from the main course and hit that shit hard!
Things not to do:
#1)Hold back on your main workout anticipating the finisher.
#2)Hammer the same movements that you just did in the workout.
#3)Over-reaching or creating a 2nd workout with your finisher. Making the finisher just a longer extension of the main workout isn't effective either.
Examples of a fine finish:
#1)A few sets alternating of weighted back extensions and L-sits.
#2)A few sets alternating of Handstand holding and deadhang pullups.
#3)One set of one of the following: Max Pushups/Dips/Pistols/HSPU/Muscle-Up etc.
#4)On heavy days, a back-off set after your work sets with about 60-75% of your effort with flawless technique.
#5)One all-out 400m run, or two-all out 100m runs (one there, one back).
#6)Best box/broad jump.
Now go-forth and be beast!

I have a point of contention! A "coffin" by definition is "anthropoidal" in shape. Our coffin is rectangular, with a picture on an anthropoid painted on top. I specialize in this kind of stuff, so trust me. Regardless, how high and how many times do I have to jump??? And, how long do I have to do it?
PS: If you need guidance on further death, funeral, or death investigation issues, see me at SFCF.

"Hold back on your main workout anticipating the finisher". Find myself nodding at that. note to self: time to stop being a wuss
