Workout for 29th July.

in Workout Logs

Todays workout was a deck of cards workout.

Suits
* Spades = Bicycle Crunchies
* Hearts = Push-ups
* Diamonds =Star Jumps
* Clubs = Squat Thrusts

Repetitions
* ace = 11 reps
* 2 = 2 reps
* 3 = 3 reps and so on
* Jack = 11 reps
* Queen = 12 reps
* King = 13 reps
* Joker = 25 of the previous exercise.

I worked through the deck of cards twice for a total of 908 exercises, I know I keep banging on about it but make no mistake about it, there really are few routines that are as challenging as a deck of cards workout. Don’t rest between exercises and only have a very short rest between decks.
