2:00×20 AMRAP Circuit
Thursday, November 10, 2016
It was a brisk 36° this morning, but we shook off the chill pretty quickly with some hard work. Special shout-out to 2nd Amendment for his enthusiastic counting. If there was such a thing as a man crush Thursday, he’s mine.

Back-to-back 2:00 of AMRAP Squats and a 2:00 run, followed by 2:00 of AMRAP Side Straddle Hops and another 2:00 run is hard. Come to think of it, 2:00 AMRAP Side Straddle Hops is hard all by itself. There wasn’t a whole lot of chatter. Perhaps everyone was just enjoying the music, courtesy of a fully-charged bluetooth speaker (Ahem, Jester).
For anyone who is interested, the timer that I used is an app called “Seconds.” It has the ability to create timed circuit-style workouts (HIIT, Tabata, etc). There’s a free version, but it’s five bucks to get one where you can save your workouts.
Announcements:
• THIS SATURDAY is our day to help prep/load supplies for the food bank at University Parkway Church. We’ll work one hour early this weekend, at 6:00, then will convoy over to the church to put in some extra work carrying boxes, loading trucks, etc. I’m still planning on Coffeeteria after we’re done.
