Workout for January 17th, 2015 (and kitten playing with yarn)

I was out with some friends last night and I asked what would attract more people to this blog. One of the suggestions that came up was a picture of a kitten playing with yarn. So....



Ok, enough of the foolishness, on to today's workout.

The warm up for today was supposed to be a 4 cone drill where you put 4 cones in a square about 10 feet apart from one another. You sprint from one cone, side step to the next cone, back peddle to the next cone and then side step to your starting point again. I don't have that space in by basement so instead I did a quick jog on my treadmill and worked on flexibility and stretching. My body felt pretty loose after this and I was ready to get to today's main workout.

You rest for exactly 1 minute in between rounds
Do 20 burpees in the last round to finish the workout

Cool down

5 sets of 3 reps of power cleans using just the bar
I also did some stretching out of my hamstrings and lower back

How I did

I finished all 10 rounds in 14:33. I used 95 pounds for the power cleans

Comments

This workout seemed a little easier than the last couple of days. The only time I really feel somewhat tired was on the last round of 20 burpees.
