Lighter Version of the 3 x 30 Workout
So, a few days ago, I posted a CrossFit-style workout that consisted of 3 supersets of 3 exercises - 30 reps of each (http://erinborchard.blogspot.com/2011/07/3-mini-met-con-blasts-3-x-30-of-3.html). My sister and I worked out together early this morning; our intention was to complete that original workout. We're human, though, and all of those reps were just beyond daunting this morning, so we modified the rep set scheme into something a bit more manageable, added some stair work and a burpee blast, and ended up with what you see listed below. Best of all, we survived!...and worked our tails off.
