AMRAP 12

>> Tuesday, November 16, 2010

We almost did tonight's WOD as AMRAP15 and decided to do AMRAP12 at the last minute. In case all those letter confuse you, it means "As Many Rounds/Reps As Possible" in an allotted amount of time- in this case, either 12 or 15 minutes.

Now that it's over, I'm glad we did 12 minutes! It was a doozy.

Box jumps
Dumbbell power snatch 25#
Push-ups
Sit-ups

Every minute, on the minute, perform as many reps as possible of 1 category until the next minute when you do as many reps in the next category...straight for 12 minutes.

The first round of 4 exercises I did 73 total reps of everything. The second round of 4 exercises I did 82 exercises. And the final 4 exercises I did 84 rounds. Total reps = 239 in 12 minutes!

It was a great workout!

This morning I followed my plan of getting some things done before going to work. I swept and mopped both upstair bathroom floors. I felt good about getting that done and then over lunch I picked up some stuff for the dog that I've been meaning to get for months but I hardly ever go to a pet store. In other words, I'm chipping away at my to-do list!

you've gotta break it down girl- how many pushups did you do in a minute? I'm just curious cuz Rob and I always try to see how many we can do.
sounds like a super tough workout though- holy crap!

Isn't it such a good feeling to cross things off the to-do list?! I find that there are so many little things that I need to do, but don't... grr! :)

sorry Lexi- no counting of individual exercises... I could estimate I suppose and say 30 but I was doing modified push-ups

Yay for chipping away! That's awesome!
