Well this started off quite easy mainly because I chose weights that were too light - I only went with 2 x 3kg trying to keep things easy thinking about recovery etc and hardly broke a sweat nearly 10 mins in, but then they turned the heat up with the bodyweight stuff and pheeeew!!!
The 3 push press routine was pretty easy with the 3kg's so when Dan says "if you wanna go to a heavier weight.." I jumped to 2 x 5kg and did one set...erm wrong that was too much lol ( I did it but knew I wouldn't get any more sets with good form) so went back to the 3's. Will definitely try 2 x 4kg throughout next time!
The clean action is different to how I learnt it as there is no real dip and shrug - it's more of a reverse curl so that took a bit of getting used to as I kept getting out of sync. with the guys
Those scarecrow push ups (more weird names lol) are tougher than they look! But I actually did something similar without really trying when the sphinx push ups got hard in P90X lol
And the mountain climbers (not like the mountain climbers I know i.e. plank position and run with your feet) in plank position and bring righ knee up to left elbow, then left knee up to right elbow (I think there something similar in X2??) but boy did I feel those in my obliques
Burpees - OMG I've always pretty much hated burpees but another reason I wanted to do combat was to learn to love them - if that's possible?
My problem is I have long legs and have always struggled with the jump back and forward again - any tips anyone?
