I'm Out of Here!

Pin It

Thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do which must be done, whether you like it or not. Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed in you temperance, self-control, diligence, strength of will, content, and a hundred other virtues which the idle never know.

-Charles Kingsley

Tuesday night's Workout! Get there early to get set up...we have lots to do!
5 Rounds

Each round is two minutes. The athlete will sprint to fence and back and use the remaining time to perform as many push-ups until the round is over. One minute of rest after each round. The athlete is scored by the total number of push-ups.


10.9.8.7.6.5.4.3.2.12.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10 reps OF:
Thrusters 115/85lbs
Kettlebell Swings 24/16kg
(see below for correct form!)
Burpees
overhead squats

Use your lats to help you stop the backwards travel of the kettlebell at the top, and bring the weight back down. Grip the kettlebell hard when it's overhead, and don't purposely hang out there for too long.

Finally, make sure your core is clamped down TIGHT throughout the movement. The momentum from the kettlebell is going to want to take you over backwards. Don't let it.

50 Wall Balls
