Monday Workout: Christmas in July






It’s time for the 12 Days of Christmas in July.  We do this workout twice a year, once in December and once some time in the summer and I’ve decided that now is the time.  Here’s how it works:  On the first “day,” we do one push press.  Then it is magically the second day right away and we do two goblet squats and one push press.  The third day follows immediately on the second and we do three overhead presses, two goblet squats, and one push press, continuing on until we have completed all twelve days.  We try to keep our rests to the ends of the days (most people want their first rest after day five and before the burpees start), but rest whenever necessary.  And yes, I do understand that we end up doing 42 burpees before we are done with this workout; I am probably not your true love, but I will make all of us stronger.  As always, modify as needed for your body.
