Today's workout....Shoulder w/ Active rest

As I started my workout today, I thought to myself that I really shouldn't train shoulders due to the soreness I am experiencing from the 270 push-ups I did Tuesday as my active rest for my chest & triceps workout.  However, I like to constantly challenge myself and once my mind is set on something it can be difficult for me to change it (this can be good and bad at times:) )
With that being said, I planned on a lighter shoulder workout w/active rest (my favorite).  And the active rest I really wanted to perform was burpees.  I figured I'd give it a try and see if my chest, shoulders, and triceps could take it.... Well, they did and I had a great 468 calorie burn!!!


The Workout:
4x6-8r (4 sets, 6-8 repetitions) w/active rest of 5 burpees.

-Upright rows/Burpees
-Seated front raise Vs/Jumping jack burpees (do a jumping jack in place of the jump)
-Shoulder press/3pt. Jumping jack burpees (after you do the push-up, jump both feet in, then jump out to the left w/straight legs out, jump back in to center, jump out the the right w/straight legs out, and jump back to center, stand up and do the jumping jack... that is one rep.)
-Full rotation lateral raises/Mt. climber burpees (after the push-up, complete 6 mountain climbers, then come up and do the jumping jack, that is one rep.)

S.S. (Super-set)w/ active rest abs
-Alternating front raises/Lateral raises
w/active rest: reverse crunches-20r
-Arnold presses/Flys
w/active rest: Flutter&Scissor abs-20r ea.


Please always allow time to stretch:)
