I include a variety of sit-up forms [...]

Have been solo on the CrossFit WOD’s.  Am missing my Lincoln CrossFit box greatly, but due to budget limitations, have to get the WOD’s done at home and the YMCA.  I [...]

Angie is a nice, no sense workout that requires minimal equipment (pull up bar). This heart pounder involves 100 continuous reps of pull-ups, push ups, squats (air) and situps. I took my first pass at a Droid recording and subsequent Power Director video edits. So my disclaimer, this ain’t polished. Of benefit in reviewing this [...]
