Workout for Wednesday, December 9

Dumbbell Push Press Ladder (doubled)

Use the heaviest dumbbells you typically would use to do about 8 pretty challenging reps of dumbbell push presses. On the first minute, do two DB push presses, second minute, do four, third minute do 6, and so on until you are unable to finish the push presses for that minute. Your score is the last minute you were able to complete the work.
