Okay, maybe I don’t like every Monday, but this one seems to be off to a great start!

Five Rounds of:

1. Concept 2 Rowing Ergometer: 3 minutes

2. Slosh Pipe Twisting Walking Lunges: So much of what we do as outdoor athletes–trail running, mountain biking, obstacle running (like the crazy Primal Challenge), kayaking, canoeing–requires us to use our entire bodies. The most efficient of outdoor athletes have a great connection that flows through their core–linking upper and lower bodies with rotational core strength and flexibility. The Slosh Pipe Twisting Walking Lunge emphasizes this connection with the added balance challenge of the moving water in the PVC pipe.

3. Barbell Curls: okay, I know–“musclehead.” But, if you are a guy, you have to give in to the testosterone once in a while.

I hope your Monday started with a great workout, magnificent sunrise or something else to get you pumped for the day’s challenges.
