Now that’s clever

We got a lot of work done Thursday! Check out the master results board at the end of the post!

Warm-Up: Jeremy + Sit-ups

21-15-9 reps for time of:

PVC Overhead Squats
Burpees
Sit-ups

Workout: Back Squats

Game plan was simple: work up to bodyweight for the gents or 2/3s bodyweight for the ladies and get as many reps done for three sets. We started off with a few warm-ups sets using lighter weight before hitting the heavier weights. Ideally each person had 4 minutes of rest before each attempt.

For the little discussion Tom mentioned about the bar placement during a back squat, look here.

With 13 people in class this portion took up most of the hour, but you know we couldn’t end without a Finisher.

Finisher: A Twisted Push-up/Sit-up Ladder

Starting with 1 push-up and 2 sit-ups, go up the ladder and complete as many push-ups and sit-ups in 5 minutes. The ladder works like this:

1 push-up, 2 sit-ups
2 push-ups, 4 sit-ups
3 push-ups, 6 sit-ups
4 push-ups, 8 sit-ups

Etc etc etc.

RESULTS!
