Joshata

What?

Joshata, duh. It’s when you do a tabata just like my boy Josh does!

Fun morning at the gym … well, the Sixers were fun but I can’t speak for Joanie and the Sevens or Brian and the Eight-and-a-Quarters.

CrossFit Class
Overhead Squats 
5x 10 @ 50% of 1RM

Tabata Joshata
Push Ups*
Sit Ups

*We had a few folks that had trouble with their shoulders and, in particular, push ups. So, they subbed out Wall Balls instead. I watched them do it. It looked WAY worse than push ups to me!

But what makes it a Joshata?
Simple, alternate between push ups and sit ups instead of doing all your rounds of push ups followed by all your rounds of sit ups. Much funner this way … well, it was funner for me, Jenny, Taylor and Nancy anyway ;).

Thanks for always being such a good sport, Josh!

Weightlifting class
Olympic warm up

Hang snatch
8x 1 @ 60%

Pause Benchpress
6x 3 AHAP.
Three count down, three count hold at bottom, up as fast as possible.

Accessories
5x 8 Ties to Bar

Ties to Bar are really hard. You have to get on the GHD machine, wrap a band around your neck and then attach it to the Reverse Hyper machine while doing inverted, upside down back bends.

Well, it was that or a typo and you’re supposed to do Toes to Bar but what the hell do I know?!?
