Day 5!!  Performed 2/6/2014 at the Ninja Clubhouse in the Dragon Lair.  So, this day called for sprints. 15 minutes of SPRINTS.  I didn't really have anywhere to sprint because of the Polar Vortex, so I made some modifications.  I did 15 Burpees on the minute for 10 minutes.  I almost puked my GUTS out.  THEN, I added a short preview of a workout I call the Monkey Butler Complex.  I have included it in the metabolic section at the bottom.

Warm-Up:
5 minutes Naked TGU's
Windmill Stick :45 seconds each side x2.  The extra 15 seconds was EXCRUCIATING!
Stoney Stretch :30 each side
Quadruped Rockbacks 5 breaths

Workout: Strength Training
Single Leg DL: 1-2-3-1-2-3  each side, loaded with a 20kg KB
Front Squat 1-2-3 (95lbs), 1-2-3 (135 lbs).  I know that seems light, but I'm SHIT at Front Squats, so the 135 was actually my PR!!
Hanging Leg Raise 1-2-3-1-2-3

Metabolic:
15 Burpees on the minute for 10 minutes!  This was RIDICULOUS!!!

Suitcase Carry: 32 kg

Bird Dog Series x2 Contralateral Knee to wrist, knee to fingertips, knee to elbow, then same side.

WORKOUT: Strength Training
Deadlift 1-2-3/1-2-3   I didn't have Barbell access, so I did two 24kgs.  'Twas rough.
Goblet Squat: 1-2-3/1-2-3 24kg
Ab Wheel 1-2-3-1-2-3

Metabolic Conditioning (I did 5 rounds of this.  I went down a bell size each round, and it kicked my sugar sweet ass.) I did one side then the other.  Round 1: 20kg Round 2: 18kg Round 3: 16kg Rounds 4 & 5: 12kg.

5 1-Arm Swings
5 1-Arm Cleans
5 1-Arm Snatches
