"Squat"squatch

So, I think I'm funny. I'm pretty sure I'm not, but I still like to think I am. Hubby and I joined a new gym a few months ago and I've been putting together workouts for us. I named one of them "squat"squatch (you know...like Sasquatch?), mostly because it is a beast! Saying "squat"squatch makes me laugh...and it makes my husband role his eyes. I don't care, I still think I'm hilarious!

Here are 2 of my most recent workouts (and their very clever names).

Sets for Sweat

plyo/cardio portion

1 min work, 10 sec rest, 3 rnds

jump rope
mountain climbers (each toe tap counts as 1)
switch jump lunges
burpees
box jumps

now the strength portion

15-10-5 reps

bicep curls
thrusters
tricep row

The idea with this strength portion is to increase weight amount while decreasing reps

Our numbers for the plyo portion (didn't keep track of jump rope)

Hubs round 1: 110, 40, 13, 16; round 2: 110, 45, 13, 17; round 3: 102, 48, 13, 16
Me round 1: 128, 45, 11, 17; round 2: 110, 44, 11, 17; round 3: 100, 37, 10, 16
