Do you know what an EMOM is??

In case there is someone out there, like my husband, who does not know what an EMOM is I am going to try to explain. Because... my husband did the wrong workout today without me. He did the EMOM but he did not know what that was. He did one minute of each exercise every min for the duration! He said it was the hardest workout ever. 

So, in this workout, when the first minute starts you will do 4 push-ups, 10 high knees, and 20 jumps during that minute. If that takes you a full minute then you will get a 10 second break and when the second minute starts you will do those 3 exercises again during that min etc. However, if you get those three exercises done in less than a minute then you get to use whatever time is left in that minute to rest before moving to the next set at the beginning of the next minute. Hope that helps.

Good morning. I had the opportunity to work out this morning. I loved it. What a great place you have to get it done.

Might try a wall sit instead of the hold. It's a little easier on the knees.

Day 3 done. This is the first time I have been able to do 3 consecutive days. My shin splints are not hurting! My job has caused some patella tendonitis but it is not stopping me yet. My jump tricks are coming along as well. I love this kind of work out. Did shallow lunge pulses and did a wall sit in place of squat hold. Still doing wall push-ups as well. Did chin ups on my Total Gym. Not as good as a bar but it's what I can manage at the moment

I've never done a challenge like this. I enjoy seeing everyone excited and Doing The Thing. It is great accountability for me. Also like seeing how you all modify when needed. Have a great day!
