  • 24 KG KB Swing Tabata: 12,12,13,12,12,12,12,12
  • Med+Low Box Plyo Jumps+10 lbs (27.75"): 20,18,15
  • High+low Box Jumps (34"): 1, 15
  • Palloff Presses: 60*3
  • Rope Slams: 20, 16

notes: Keep getting 13 on 3rd set of tabata last couple weeks. No clue why. Decided to make box jumping more challenging today, so I held a medicine ball while I did the 27.75" jumps. Made it MUCH harder. It's not just the weight I added, it's that I can't use my arms and swing them for momentum really. It becomes a total lower body explosive exercise. I tried working up to the high+low box jumps before I did the first set of med+low jumps, but kept getting scared when I jumped. I went back to it again, and did that first one and saw it wasn't that bad, measured it, and saw it was only 34" high. Considering several years ago when I was 168 I hit 41.5", 34" doesn't seem that bad for plyo work. So I went to town. Finished with some palloffs and rope slams and called it a day.
