A little FYF workout in the park - Met Con Special

Had a superb conditioning workout down in a local park a short while ago.

Sun setting, warm heat, green trees, not too many people about - ideal conditions and always amazes me that people would rather go to a sweaty boring gym than get out doors in the fresh air and work out creatively.

Here's what went down:-

Met Con Hell
40kg Beast bag bear crawl drag 60 seconds
30 seconds switch over
15m battling rope slams 60 seconds
30 seconds switch over
Repeat for 3 rounds apiece.

Rest 2 minutes

Repeat for another 3 rounds of super sets this time with 45 seconds each on the weighted bear crawl/rope slam with 30 sec change over between each.

Rest 3 minutes

Double Kettlebell Complex
Clean x 1
Squat x 1
Military Press x 1
Reverse lunge each leg x 1/1
Push Press x 1
Complete 3 times through without rest.
Rest 60 seconds
Repeat for 3 sets of 3 complexes in total.

Rest for 2 minutes

Repeat again with 3 complexes through for 2 rounds
Rest 2 minutes
Repeat again with one round more of 3 times through the complex.

Finisher:-
17kg Bulgarian Bag Spins 10 reps each way
Partner 40kg sandbag shouldering (4-5 reps each time)
Swap over.
Rest 45 seconds
Complete 4 rounds.

When it was all said and done this took 60 minutes and was a brutal session. Round 1 was a total ass kicker, top end cardio stimulus.

Round 2 more strength based.

Round 3 strength/power to sap any remaining juice!

Loved it!
