Push-ups, Ring Dips, Push-Press
I am going to be on a much needed vacation this coming week on Flathead Lake in Montana. The blog postings this coming week may be shorter than usual, but Jeremy is going to take care of keeping the workouts updated. All classes will be as normally scheduled. I’ll see everyone in two weeks. Work hard while I’m gone.

15 Push-ups
12 Ring dips
115 pound Push-press, 9 reps
Substitutions: Ring Push-ups, Leaning Ring Dips, Dumbbell Push-Press, 5-15 minutes.
Post rounds completed to comments.

Seriously - crazy how hard dips are after doing push-ups… and how hard push-presses are after blasting your chin on the first rep - honestly I couldn’t understand how blood was not coming out - took a nice chunk out of the inside of my cheek though.
*cough*cough* Excuse me, I just coughed up my triceps.

Funny you mention losing some skin at the gym. Ron and I were talking about enforcing a PYOS policy at the gym. Effective Immediately! You know “Pick up Your Own Skin” (PYOS). Ya this workout made me remember how much I despise dips. Which is why I started a Dip Challenge for 30 days. Day 1 is tomorrow and each day you do a dip and the following day you add 1 more until we get to 30. It doesnt have to be in a row just you have to do them in the warm up and cant move on and come back.

Oh ok - I was wondering how that was going to work… otherwise I would probably only get to like day 6 or 7. Sounds like fun!
