I woke up exhausted and honestly was not sure what I was going to do on the Q schedule this morning.  I had been out of town in an all-day meeting and had to get back later last night.  Then something I heard woke me up at 3 am and I never went back to sleep.  While I was staring at the ceiling, I knew I wanted to do something at Parliament, without blocks to change things up.  So here is what I came up with.

5 Exercises/Repeato – EMOM- with progression up and down for 35 minutes.  Here is what we did.

The Thang – By Minute

  1. Burpees – 10,12,14,16,14,12,10 = 88
  2. Air Squats – 15,20,25,30,25,20,15 = 150
  3. Merkins – 15,20,25,30,25,20,15 = 150
  4. WWII’s – 20,25,30,35,30,25,20 = 190
  5. Gas Pump (modified no block) – 20,25,30,35,30,25,20 = 190

EMOM Mary

  • Penguin Crunch
  • Low Flutter
  • Freddy Mercs
  • LBC’s
  • Body Destroyers

All in all, this workout looks simple and it is but with zero running, we definitely got the heart rate up.  At the end we had a skunk come visit us.  We was walking to us through the parking lot and then avoided us.  I guess we stunk worse than he did.

Thanks for letting me lead Tonka.  – Duck Out!
