The New 300s

Just to keep it interesting. I changed to crazy pushups that I learned secondhand through Ying O'Fire from Josha Krueger at Kru Strength + Fitness, and swapped in bridges for squats as part of my hamstring improvement program.

As usual, I have no instructions for how to actually do these exercises. Go see Josha, she runs an amazing boot camp on Saturdays for WCR skaters, or come to circuit and I will show you what I know.
