Witty Wednesday – Clear the Stress!!!

Today’s 44 was another push-up variation.  I used my agility ladder and did wide push-ups with my fingers pointed out to the side (amazing how that hand position changes the whole move!).

These are hard but I can tell that I am getting stronger because I only had to take 2 quick stretch breaks to complete all 44.

Power Legs was my workout today (Insanity the Asylum vol. 2) and it is a challenge!!!  55 minutes of lower body work – plenty of cardio + strength work!!   One of the moves really tested my mental coordination this morning – I struggled to get the arms and legs right especially when we had to move backwards!!!
