Swings, Push Ups, Thrusters (kettlebell)

by John Righeimer
 

Round 1: warm-up 20:00 (focus a lot on core/abs)

Round 2: 3 rounds for time (1.5 pood kb)

30 swings

20 push ups

10 thrusters (5/side)

My time – 11:24

Round 3: Push Press (1.5 pood kb)

3 x 10 (5/side)

Note: This is the worst workout I’ve had since last year at this time…I chalk it up to “cabin fever” and lack of “safe” outdoor training.  I aim to go another 365 days until my next dud workout…looking forward to getting back to my indoor toys of rower, jump rope, etc. The next time I’m in the North Woods I’ll have all the outdoors to play in again as spring/summer will be in hand.  With this said, I had more good WOD’s here in the winter and got out more in the forest than usual.
