Eat Clean Train Dirty Workout!

“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.” Ronald Dahl
Load for today – AHAP! Post load with time.
50 squats, deep, hips past knees...

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 3 jack +1 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...meaning, chest comes down, touches the ground, hands lift up.
50 One Arm Kettlebell swings
5 reps each arm. Do not put the kbell down until you reach 50.
Russian swings (not overhead)

50 One Arm step-ups holding heavy dumbell...
