Monday's Workout

Yesterday my workout was called the stairway to hell part three.

The workout involved stairs of course and what I call full burpees. The full burpees are also known as lay down stand ups on X-Weighted(a tv weight loss show here in Canada).

Before I began this workout I always do the same warm up of the day to loosen my tight muscles and to get focused.
Here are some of the warm up exercises before I do my main workout:
arm circles,scorpions,lunges,toy soliders,turkish getups using a kettlebell and also jumping jacks.

The workout begins at the bottom of the stairs doing 10 full burpees, then I picked up a 9kg medicine ball and proceeded to head up the stairs.
At the top of the stairs I placed the ball on the floor.
I learned my lesson in an earlier stairway to hell workout about placing the ball down instead of dropping it. The ball will roll around and it managed to have a mind of it own and it headed back down without me. My trainer yelled up at me to come back down grab the ball and start my reps all over again since I let the ball come back down. ARRRGGHH never again will I let the ball make me do another extra set.

After I place the ball at the top the stairs, I begin my full burpee set of ten.

The workout then heads back downstairs carrying the ball to do the next rep of nine full burpees, and then back up to nine up top.
This continues until you reach the magic number of zero full burpees remaining.

The workout is a great one, it sounds pretty basic but it is a great total body drill.

Once I had finished the stairway to hell part three I managed to catch my breath and asked how my time was.
My trainer said I had a great time and even some leftover so get ready for some push ups.
Eighty push ups later my workout was done....

Not bad for early Monday morning....
I wonder what Wednesday's workout will be???

Heres hoping it will involve some dealifting or bench pressing and setting a personal best!!!
