Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, squat, dynamic plank warm-up with upward<>downward dogs, high plank and various exercises from high plank position
THE THANG: Jacob’s Ladder – 9 through 1 – alternating KB snatches OH on one end of ladder, 4-count mountain climbers on other end of ladder; mode of transportation = pass-through forward lunges with KB “up the ladder” and pass-through backward lunges with KB down the ladder.
Curb Workout- [hand on bell and other hand on curb – merkins in cadence x5, LOW squats in cadence x6, KB swings x7 OYO, KB curls x8 OYO, KB OH triceps ext x9 OYO] x4 sets
single arm KB rows x6 each arm, KB RDLs x10, KB american hammers x7 double-count

Birdcage was supposed to be on Q, but recently fell from a ladder taking down Christmas lights, hence the title of the workout. Apparently he’s doing alright, but sending prayers his way nonetheless.

Thanks to Beaker for calling my number on short notice.
