Armageddon!!!

As promised...Armageddon.

This workout consists of three levels.  I recommend a quick warmup:  Jump rope, few pushups, squats and wrestlers.  DO NOT OVER DO IT!!!  That is what the workout is for.  Remember, you get light-headed, dizzy, or even feel the need to purge the Denny's Grand Slam breakfast you just ate...step back and regain your focus.  Passing out during workouts benefits you, nada.

Level One:  5 minute time limit
     1 minute...Sprints-14 yards round trip
     1 minute...Alternating Leg Lifts
     1 minute...Horse Stance with Horizontal punches
     1 minute...Plank Hold
     1 minute...Rolling Wrestlers

1 minute rest, water up and mop off.

Level Two:  10 Minute Amrap (As Many Rounds As Possible)
     100 Jump Ropes (I used a 2-lb rope)
       50 Total Bicycle Crunches
       10 Pushups (I used Paralettes to get full range)
         5 Pullups (You can sub in Ring Rows)
         1 Super Squat Combo (Why?  Well two is just silly)

1 minute rest, water up and hose off.

Level Three:  Round-down 10 to 1 reps  (or as we say in class, "HOLY CRAP!!!")
     Burpees
     Plank Running, total each leg
     Thrusters with 25-lb dumbbells (Sub in Kettlebell Swings, or standard squats.  Your pain)
     Bent-over Rows with 32-lb Kettlebell, each arm (Or appropriate weight for you)
     Lying Hip Extension

All done.  Have a friend roll you over to the couch or your car.

Any questions, no...good.  Embrace the carnage.

Wow! And here I thought my 2 mile walk at dawn today was ambitious.

In the absence of kettlekells what do you suggest using?
