Christmas Sweat~

my fitness warriors!


“To be successful you must accept all challenges that come your way. You can’t just accept the ones you like.” -Mike Gafka
I am looking forward to today's workout, I plan to try to do most of it, I am still struggling with chest exercises, so, I will go easy on those. 
For time:
150 Push Ups
Every time you stop and rest with your chest on the ground this constitutes a penalty. If a penalty is counted, you must immediately do 10 tuck Jumps. Once the penalty is completed continue with the push ups.
You can rest in a pike position (the top of a push up) but once you can not do push ups any longer and need to rest on the ground, a penalty is counted and a complete 10 tuck Jumps
Push Ups are hand release.
THEN!
10 Rounds of:
5 SDHP
10 Heavy Chest press 
10 Heavy KB swings
10 Jump Squats
10 Squat Box Jumps
*15min time limit...gotta hit some core!
Someone was asking about my protein pancake recipe...check out some of my favorites here:
Recipe..Protein Pancakes
One of the best ways to keep your nutrition is to PLAN AHEAD! The only way I can keep from eating junk, keep my protein high and keep it clean is to plan ahead, I cook all my protein in advance, always have green stuff on hand and keep foods in the fridge that I can grab. Protein Pancakes are one GO TO! Make tons in advance, put them in containers in the fridge and grab when ready.  You can warm up as you go out the door if you are hungry, and eat on the go.
if you have any great recipes, I would love to get them!
