AMRAP Thursday

Okay, we're just getting stronger, there's no doubt about that.  These things don't take it out of me nearly as bad as they used to.  Also, burning out takes longer so we each got about 2.5 total sets and since we started in different places, ended up with very different totals per exercise. 

Warmed up the the obligatory jumprope and then 20 minutes, as many reps as possible of
  • Blasters D79-L60
  • Rollouts D85-L59
  • Push-pres (65-70#) 18-20
  • V-ups 41-78
  • Rockets 23-39
  • Pushups 68-45

total David: 314, Lucas 301, an improvement for both so that's cool.

Warm down with pa qua 1-8, tai chi 64 and chen for David, spears for Lucas

Rollouts 80-56
Push-Press (60-65#) 23-25
