First real training since long time, it was a living room workout. 2nd year in a row, had to modify again.

1 1′ BIKE (we got an old piece of junk cardio machine, but it makes me sweat)
2 30” PLANK
3 DB THRUSTERS
4 BP HIGH KNEE JUMP
5 DOUBLE DB PP
6 GORILLA ROW (6-6)
7 DB SWING
8 SNATCHES
9 V-UPS
10 ALT. LUNGES W/DB
11 DIAMOND PU
12 MAN – MAKERS

It took way too long, but time wasn’t relevant.
