Emily 1, Brenda and Corey this morning for this very tough workout and Emily said she thought it was her hardest workout so far. The difficulty with this workout is that all 315 reps require some degree of hip extension, whether from a full squat up to a thruster, a swing, a double under or a box jump, you can't escape opening your hips over and over again on this one.
The quote of the day came from Sheri who, during her last set of barbell lifts said, "Shit, this is brutal." Indeed, this was a crushing workout. Sheri was swinging a 44 (she weighs maybe 125 or so) and she was jumping on the big boy tire. Most all of us commented on how difficult the jumps were. Jared's 22:20 was particularly impressive since he has been gone for a couple weeks to NC to get trained up for a new pilot gig with his NG unit. In fact local law enforcement may get a chance to use him and his aeroscout flying skills for anti-drug activities.
