Happy Birthday Kathleen!!!
(yes, Kathleen, not Maureen or Christine)

W.O.D. 7.28.10

Working in teams of three, AMRAP in 5 minutes of the following:

30m Prowler Sprints 90#/45#

Deadlifts 135#/95#

Wall Ball 20#/14# (to 10 ft target)

Double Unders

Coaching Tips: Scale load and movements to match your current fitness level. You will spend 5 minutes at each station trying to amass maximum repetitions. One person works at a time and you will stay 5 minutes at each station before rotating to the next exercise. This is a high volume workload workout, so utilize a smart strategy to economize the workload between all team members.

Who's in the breakfast club tomorrow - I am coming at 6am (committing on the blog means I will show up)?! Can I get an Ellie?!

Aimee Lyons said...

I heard Jim C. say he was sending Grans in for the AM session, but that could be a rumor?

Kathleen,
you always come to the gym ready to work and learn. I was super happy to see you do the King/Queen of Prussia, I think people saw a fire burn even brighter in that engine of yours. Happy birthday!
