The "I can do better" Workout

I made up another bodyweight/kettlebell/jump rope circuit. It was fun, but as I was doing it, I was already planning how to make it better for next time. Initially, I planned to do 25 reps of each exercise, but I realized most of them were paired, and needed an even number, so I did 12 on each side instead. Next time, I'll do either 30 or 40 reps instead of "25." I also did 50 jump rope jumps between exercises, but next time I'll do 100, since the 50 seemed a bit short.

1a. lizard push ups x 24
1b. chin ups x10 (haha, I wish I could do 25!)
1.c 50 rope jumps

2a. kettlebell swings x 25
2b. burpees x 25
2.c 50 rope jumps

3a. C&P x12 each side
3b. one arm row x 12 each side
3.c 50 rope jumps

4a. kettlebell snatches x 12 each side
4b. suitcase dead lifts x 12 each side
4.c 50 rope jumps

5a. swing/catch/squat x 25
5b. tactical lunges x24
5.c 50 rope jumps

6a. plank punches x 24
6b. overhead swings x 25
6.c 50 rope jumps

Haha, so funny to see someone else having the "but I'll do the double next time, because this didn't seem enough" in training! :D It really made a norwegian girl sitting in Russia smile!
