EMOM for 10 minutes

  • Station 1 – 10 x TRX Split Squat Left Leg
  • Station 2 – 10 x TRX Split Squat Right Leg

Then EMOM for 10 minutes

  • Station 1 – 5 x Glute Bridge @ 65lbs
  • Station 2 – 20 x Kettlebell Swings

Results:  TRX Split Squats are something I saw on Instagram so decided it would be interesting to try.  Started the first two rounds with no weight then added 10kg per hand for the rest.   The Glute Bridge / KBS combo was good. Once done took a good 15 minutes to stretch my hips and butt at the end… Pidgeon Stretch, Buddah Stretch, Couch Stretch, etc.
