Renegade Rows

That feeling you get after a workout when you are a little woozy, your whole body feels heavy, and you're not really sure if you should walk. That's the one. That's how we were when we finished this workout.

We wanted to come back to the Renegade Rows, that seemed so simple and turned out to be quite difficult. It really is a multiple-area exercise: chest-back-abs. But since it doesn't work legs much, this allowed me to bring in something I've really wanted to add: box jumps. We want to make sure we can still move around and jumping is definitely something that builds 'functional' skills.

We settled on 5 circuits. We definitely paid for it.

For the first time in a while, sometime during the fourth circuit when I probably looked like I wasn't going to make it, Rich said, "This was your damn idea."
"Yeah, it was."

This one beat us down solidly. We sat for quite a while before we tried to leave.
