Today's session:
5 x (15 x thrusters, 15 x bar-facing burpees, 200m run).
Thrusters. Hold barbell and do a front squat, as you stand up keep the bar moving straight into a shoulder press. I started with a 30kg bar but could only manage 2 rounds with this weight, and by the last round was struggling with a 15kg bar!
Bar-facing burpees. Squat down and kick legs out into the press-up position. Do one press-up. Complete the squat by bringing the feet back to the hands and stand up. Do a feet together jump over the 12" log in front of you You can twist in mid-air if you want, or land and turn round. That is 1 rep.
The thrusters exercise just about every muscle group, as do the burpees. This is a hard set.
Glad I did it, though.
Edit: Just found this quote on the web:
The Most Important Thing About The Thruster
If you don't feel a little nauseous after a set of Thrusters....you aren't doing it right.
