Workout for Wednesday, February 18

Dumbbell Push Press 3-3-3-3-3
PVC Overhead Squat and Burpees--21-15-9 for time

We'll work on the technique for deadlifts, cleans, push press, and squats. Then we'll do dumbbell push press, working to maximum weight, 5 sets of 3 each. Last we'll do overhead squats with PVC pipe and burpees. We'll do 21 overhead squats, 21 burpees. 15 overhead squats, 15 burpees. 9 overhead squats, 9 burpees. For time.

You can see a video of burpees to the right. Takes your breath away! Whew. Many athletes call them "up/downs".

  1. OK my brain is not working today. Laura...do we time only the squats and burpees, or the squats, burpees, and dumbell presses combined??

  2. Sorry, I was probably not very clear. The weights are not for time. Just do the OH squats and burpees for time.
