April Fool's Workout

Today was GVT with decreasing rest periods: 5 sets, 5 reps per exercise, rest periods decreasing by 15 seconds between each superset (60 sec->15 sec.)

superset: sumo deads, 135 lbs, jump squats, 30 lbs
superset: RDL, 120 lbs, Bulgarian ss, 30 lbs
superset: snatch grip deads, 100 lbs (could've gone a bit heavier--woot!), pistols, BW

Then I finished with five rounds of Two Minute torture courtesy of www.newjerseycrossfit.com (check out the Workout of the Day feature if you want some great ideas for awful things you can do to yourself involving mostly kettlebells and bodyweight).

The idea here is to begin each round on the 2 minute mark:

5 burpees
5 snatches each arm
15 mountain climbers
20 swings

As written the workout is meant to last 20 minutes, but since I was doing it as an add-on I only did half.

Later, ballet!!!
