THA-THANG:
For entire workout, the exercises are tempo exercises in cadence.  Unless noted, each rep is done at a 6 count.  So, basically doubling the time to do the rep.  For example, typically one Merkin would be 1(start down), 2(low point), 3(finish).  Here, it is 1(start),2,3 (low point), 4(begin up), 5, 6(finish).  To increase focus, slow down the counting.  If you want, stop counting completely until complaints are heard.

  • 3 rounds of the following.  After each round, mosey (~30-40 seconds) a bit to recover and/or head to CMUs.
    • 8 Split Squats (Round 1 Right foot forward, Round 2 Left foot forward, Round 3 regular squat increase count to 10 or 12.)
    • 8 Merkin (Round 1 Diamond, Round 2 Regular, Round 3 wide)

    • Round 1 – Side Plank with 5 leg raise each leg. Round 2 & 3 regular plank 30-60seconds
  • 3 rounds of each with CMU.  Again 30-40 second mosey out and back without CMU.
