Mash Up
Decided to mix-up different exercises this morning to combat boredom. After some thinking, the finalists were: rock rings, burpees, Ariane (can't find the old post about this), Krista, and a new one I'll call the rock walk, inspired by sandbag exercises.
Specifically, one round of each involved the following.
- Rock rings: 3 pullups, 5 secs L hang, 10 secs dead hangs.
- Burpees: 3.
- Ariane: 3 x stand on one leg, put your hands one the ground, walk into a one legged plank, do a one leg pushup, walk your hands back, and stand up on one leg - do not put the other leg on the ground in between).
- rock walk: 3 x grab a rock on the ground (my guess is that it was about 20 pounds), put on shoulder, walk 10 paces (+/- 20 feet), put rock on the ground (don't throw it).
- Krista: 3 (a mini version - 3 one leg pushup + 3 plank walkups).
If I did 2 rounds, I would do 2x of the rock rings, then 6 burpees, etc. If something is asymmetric, I would alternate every 3 reps. I would never take a break between reps of an exercise, but I took breaks between exercises.
The complete workout was: 1 round (rr jugs), 2 rounds (rr large edge), 3 rounds (rr 3 medium edge + 6 jugs), 4 rounds (9 jug and 3 finger pocket + 3 jugs), and in the 5th set I did the rock rings (9 large edge and medium edge + 6 jugs) and the burpees.
So in total it was 45 reps of rock rings, 45 burpees, 30 reps of Ariane, 30 rock walks, and 30 reps of Krista.
I originally wanted to do more, but my head was spinning when I stopped.
