Wednesday, November 10 'HSPU/KB swing/GHD sit-up'

Another AMRAP, this time just eight minutes, great. Looks fun, but packs a serious punch. This was a really good session. Manageable numbers, good exercises, how does it kick ass so brutally?

8:00 AMRAP
4 HSPU
8 KB swings
12 GHD sit-ups

Eric- Rx  6
Alice Ann- 30  4 + 19 sit-ups
David- 53  5 + 6 KB swings
Emilee- 35  5 + 4 KB swings
Lisa- 30  4
Sharon- 35  3 + 8 KB swings
T- Rx  5 + 4 HSPU

Does the 70 pound kettlebell still feel like 80 pounds to you? Me neither. It gets lighter each time I use it. Still a gas monster, but not as scary as once before.

Maybe the next big purchase could be another GHD. Luckily only a few people from both the day crew and the night crew used the GHD, for everyone else, we substituted 24 abmat sit-ups for the 12 GHD sit-ups. The GHD sit-up requires practice, and as a benchmark, we like to see 50 unbroken abmat sit-ups before you begin training on the GHD.

Thursday is a rest day, but not an off day. Use your time wisely, do something that will help your body feel better, and perform better. It takes very little time. Check out the mobility wod and experiment. Thanks for all the terrific efforts. Great fuel.
