Do it mate. It's not bad once get thru the first couple of big rounds of burpees and the reps come thru. From 10 reps down it just flys by. The burpees were the hard part really and the kb swings were what I used as “rests”.
I got a good little workout planned for tomorrow morning. Watch this space

@jk I did...
BUrpees, restance band sumo deadlifts, seated rows (with resistance bands) tricep push downs and then after each round of those, did 40 mountain climbers.
Burpees are killer, havent done them for ages!

Sounds awesome!
These sorts of workouts are funny. Often they seem killer but aren’t actually that bad then others you think will be easy and they just wreck you!

Burpees seem easy but then all of a sudden hit ya like a ton of lead….that lead goes to your legs and stops you jumping at the end.
They’re grim.
Must do some in amongst the heavy bag workouts on cardio days.
They just seem to never end. The first 5 or so seem to go pretty quick, but the rest take forever.

When I last did them I never bothered with the push up part of it ( I think I figured it might mess up any potential #chestgainz )
I’ve changed my mind, I’ll just destroy myself with the heavy bag instead as that’s more functional. Fuck burpees.

Back to manmakers on Monday - will try for 21-15-9 with 250m run between rounds. Really not sure I can do 21 manmakers in a row with the 10kg weights but will try
Not sure if lifting this weekend as just done 6 days straight but hopefully a couple of decent rides

Have to do them properly. I do boot camp every week and there's alot of "burpees" that look more like "hiccups".

For leg conditioning I like to do Ninja jumps……
and these weird sort of kick squats I saw on this Sonny Liston training vid ( at 1.10 in the vid, they take a bit of balance but they’re awesome ! )
Both of those are great for strength, balance and conditioning I reckon.
Also absolute FUCK getting in a fight with Sonny Liston back in the day. George Foreman was intimidated by him which says it all.

Manmaker monday
Warmup - 20x Push-ups, squats, mountain climbers x 3. Run 500m
Manmakers (10kg DBs) - 21/15/9 with 500m run after each set of reps.
Abs and glutes - 10mins of pilates type stuff
About 35mins all up.
Wife said wanted to join me for this mornings workout. She did manmakers with 1kg dumbells so flew thru them but that probably helped spur me on as didnt think I would make 21reps unbroken with the 10kg. Felt like was gonna be a struggle after about 9 or 10 reps but ground it out.
