Speedy metcon...

I wasn't feeling a super difficult workout today so I created a speedy metcon that I had to try and do in under 5 minutes that hit every aspect of my body. Basically the purpose was to train everything quickly just to get back into it from the christmas break but still challenge myself.

4 rounds:

4 KTE
8 Weighted Pushups (20kg)
12 Power cleans (40kg, all the way up, touch the ground in between)
16 Bent over rows (40kg)

4:27

It was great. Challenging in it's own little ways and I tightened up a lot during the 3rd round. Had a mad "pump" going and really struggled my way through that 4th round. It was quick, clean and affected my whole body. Everything is just a little bit sore today so I'm pretty happy with how I went. It's amazing how sometimes you only need just a little bit to experience what you're after.

Don't always go for the biggest and best and hardest route, often you can achieve results from well thought out, smaller or less intricate plans.
