Warmed up with 2 Rounds of the Bear Complex… planned on doing it as the workout but wimped out. Instead I did:
21-15-9
Sit-ups
Front Squats w/55lbs
Push-press w/55lbs
Time: 17:46
Sit-ups are a pretty tough exercise when your abs are all stretched out and don’t work anymore.: (
3 rounds for time:
800 m run
30 pullups
=15:00
