DWF: A Cajun chicken dinner and morning burpees

Well its Saturday, and day 2 out of this training block of 3 days.

Todays workout is 12 minutes of :

10 burpees, 5 dumbbell push press L, 5 dumbbell push press R

This is nastily crafted as yesterday you had the push up grind. Today you will really want to drive your hips on the push press and you’ll probably want more of a sprawl on the burpee.

Still, super compensation, aside, it was surprisingly yuk!

Enjoy.
