Workout Notes:

  1. This is a brand new workout. Need your feedback so I know how it affects you. Please let me know your thoughts and how you did with it.

  2. These reps are supposed to be HEAVY. Not one max rep heavy, but as heavy as you can safely lift for 5 reps.

  3. Rest as needed between sets. This isn’t meant to be a soul crusher.

  4. You’ll need to warm up with lighter weights before going AHAP.

  5. If you are STUPID SORE like me, do the masters. Ha! YES, even if your aren’t over 40.

  6. You may do the couplets in any order.

  7. Note the rep count on the high weighted situp.

  8. If the joints in your arms or shoulders are wrecked, drop the arm couplet, but still do the corresponding run.

  9. More thoughts on the workout in the FaceBook Live video (right) …
