BEAST 2.0 W1D1

  Shifting up the training a little bit by incorporating WODs on lifting days. My hope is that progress will speed up not just on strength, but on stamina for not just lifting, but running as well. Strength A) 3 Sets 6-8 Dumbbell Bench Press @ 30X1 Rest :30 6-8 Dual Dumbbell Prone Row @ 2111 Rest :60 B) 3 Sets Max reps of Ring Rows @ 2020 Rest :30 :30-:60 unbroken Ring Planks Rest :60 WOD C) 4 Rounds :30 Wall Sit 10 Push Ups @ 2111 30 Double Unders (60 Single Unders) Rest :60
