Workout for Wednesday, February 24

We will work on our overhead squats--with the barbell. 3 sets of 5

Then--DB burpees

for 15 minutes we will do the following:

30 seconds DB burpees
30 seconds rest
Repeat for a total of 15 minutes, counting TOTAL number of reps.

To do a dumbbell burpee, you will hold a dumbbell in each hand (10-15 lbs each) hanging at side. Lower the DB to the floor and do the push up portion of the burpee. Bring your feet back in and jump slightly up. Dumbbells remain at your side, they do not go overhead as a normal burpee.

    Great workout for total body. I'm sore nearly everywhere...especially shoulders, back. 15 min. of db burpees was difficult, but we all pushed through it.
