Monday - "Monkey Claw"

Today was another workout pulled out of Seth's Folder of Pain and Suffering. I don't know if this one already had a name or not, so I'm calling it Monkey Claw, cause that's what my hands turned into about halfway through the towel pull-ups. My fingers are still stiff.

For Time
25 Walking lunge steps
20 Pull-ups
50 Box Jumps - 20" box
20 Double-Unders
25 Ring Dips
20 Knees-to-Elbows
30 KB Swings (2 pood) (sub 70/75# DB Swings)
30 Sit-ups
20 Hang squat cleans - 35# DBs
25 Back extensions
30 Wall-ball shots, 20# ball (sub 20# DB thrusters)
3 Rope climb ascents (sub 45 towel pull-ups)

Seth - 36:00
Justin - 35:26


This was a whole lot of works and reminded me just how much I hate thrusters. Left some rockin sweat angels on the floor afterwards, though.

I think that's an excellent name for this one; "Monkey Claw" it is.

Thought it was a great workout, but probably won't want to do it again anytime very soon.

Also, my lower back apparently didn't care for those overly heavy DB Swings. I found myself envying the old man I followed into the building this morning. Lucky guy parked in the handicapped space and he had a cane. Yep, I'm moving like an old, old man today.

Good times!
