Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement and foam roller.  Today we we are going to hit a body weight EMOTM workout.  4 periods of  7 minutes with no rest in between. This is tough conditioning session.  To make it more interesting, you have to add 2 reps to each exercise after each minute.  For example : 1st minute 3 push ups.. next minute 5 push ups.. then 7.. etc..  So get rolled out and get ready to crush it.

Happy Thanksgiving!!! Today we work, and then we feast!! Fun, Family, Food, and Football.  It's going to be a great day.. Think about 1 thing that you are thankful for this year, and focus on that during today's training session.  We are going to hit a Bulgarian Bag / Kettlebell team session.  Since historians can't really pinpoint when the first Thanksgiving Day was, we'll wing it.
