Back to the Beginning....

All great advances in life can be traced back to a beginning, a first step, a first thought. Now is the time for us to reflect on the path we have traveled. Now we go back to our beginning.....

Start over with week 1, continue through all workouts as described. The difference is now we are stronger, we are faster, and we need more work. So here's how we accomplish this:

On any weighted exercise = add in more weight
Any high rep exercise = add in  5-10 reps
Any time based exercise = add in :30-1:00min
On any AFAYC routine = GO FASTER!!
Any plyometric movements = add height to jumps, add speed to jump rope (or attempt double-unders)
Any 21, 15, 9 routine = add in 5, and 3 (21, 15, 9, 5, 3 for time)

Adding in these changes will give us a whole new workout. Play with the numbers, try different heights, or weights, and always remember that the only way to achieve victory over other competitors is to work harder than they are......and always assume they are working harder than you!

20 minute time cap, what rep number can you get to before time runs out? (note: if nearing the end of timer, and you DO NOT complete the reps for all 4 exercises, that round DOES NOT COUNT)
