The Hill

Today the class (and I) did a new 360 Hill workout.

This involves using a 53# KB and doing 360 swings in a hill pattern:
10+20+30+40+50+60+50+40+30+20+10
Intermixed with this was a bunch of mobility and core strengthening drills.
Yummy

variety cardio

We are about to begin the 12-Week Spring Swing program. So, I thought some variety was in order today.

We started with 1-leg Deadlifts with very light weights (sets of 3 reps ES) and proceeded to heavy sumo-style deadlifts (sets of 5 reps).

The cardio routine was:

5 reps 1-Hand KB Swing Left Side
5 reps 1-Hand KB Swing Right Side
5 reps KB Curl
1 rep ES Up & Down

5 reps ES Clean & Press
5 reps ES KB Rows
1 rep ES Up & Down

5 reps ES Snatch
5 reps Each way Halo
1 rep ES Up & Down

We did 4 sets of this without rest. I used a 35lb KB but it was too light for much cardio.

We finished with some ab work - plank on a swiss ball. Cool!
