Of snatches and burpees

>> Wednesday, October 13, 2010

That was an awesome workout-
21-15-9 (15# dumbbell)
Right handed dumbbell snatch
Left handed dumbbell snatch
Burpees

Time = 19:35

I'm really proud of my snatch form- michael said it was impeccable and honestly, it felt like it. They were really hard but I felt like I was really using my hips and I felt strong and in control.

Michael and I pulled the trigger and ended up ordering a bunch of equipment for a home gym. I could not be more thrilled about our decision now that it's been made. I was really uncertain at first and kept humming and hawing over the decision. Now that the equipment is on its wa, I think we made the right call. On Friday, we'll have a squat rack, bar, bumper plates, 2- 4x6 rubber mats to lay down, and a pull up bar. We already have dumbbells, kettlebells, a rower, and a medicine ball.

This week so far we've had a couple of guys from Michael's work come over and workout with us. It's been such a big motivator! When we workout at a globo gym, most people just give us funny looks so this is a nice change of pace!

Until tomorrow,

Very cool on the home gym. I wish I had the space and spare cash for one, but my collection of DVD's, my stability ball, and exercise bands are good enough for me.
