With the approach of the Terminus 4 year anniversary, YHC went through the workout archives while cleaning up my Notes app and modified a previous beatdown that starts with higher reps first and counts down from there. 10 PAX were present and ready to go at 0630 in the gloom.
Warm up:
PSA: don’t forget the importance of investing the time in warmup; I was reminded by another PAX in a neighboring region who was a collegiate athlete that we often don’t spend enough time warming up.
