Ahh the snow miser!

Ahh the snow miser!

The Ole Snow Miser worked his magic and the gym is closed today.

So here is your @ home workout. Be sure to come back and post your times to the comments.

For time:

21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 6, 3 reps of push-up, sit-ups and squats

This means you perform 21 push-ups, 21, sit-ups and 21 squats. The next round is 18 reps of each, then 15 of each and so on until you finish 3 reps of each.

Today’s breakfast

Oh so good paleo breakfast

It’s cool Kelly, hope you enjoyed the omelet - sounds very good. Enjoy the heat and I hope your power doesnt go out :)

Thanks for the snow workout but to make it complete the pm class needs to add the Sweedish version by doing the workout outside!

Enjoy your romp in the snow there buttercup…it always sounds good…until you have to do it yourself! And when the “fun” begins you ask, “What was I thinking?”

Priceless!

Squatting sans shoes made for a little different balance feel (meaning I crashed backward a couple of times!).

Josh,
very impressive - squatting without shoes in the snow, now that is a true crossfit hardcore workout.

I also fell backwards more than a few times. Like after every one of the last 3 squats. Must do faster situps!

@ Josh - good work and at least your weight was in your heels! Try them without shoes from time to time to keep it even.

@ Aidan and Jim - midline stabilization is crucial! Overhead squats, front squats, KB swings, deadlifts and so on will really build strength where you need it most.
