Day 14: Why Protein Isn’t Created Equal
CrossFit WOD for Sunday 2/16
“THE GHOST”
6 rounds of:
1 minute of rowing
1 minute of burpees
1 minute of double-unders
1 minute rest
Try for as many reps as possible of EACH exercise, not just total score. Share separate totals of calories rowed, burpee reps and double-under reps completed. Post-workout is 50 banded good mornings (recovery of post chain). Calf rollout on kettlebell, 3min/side. Doorway chest stretch, 90sec/side
