Cable crossovers superset with closegrip pullovers - 2 sets (stopped as had pinching nerve type feeling in left upper pec area)

Metabolic conditioning - 10 box jumps --> 5 widegrip pullups --> 15 pressups X 5 rounds (20sec rest between rounds). As get a bit fitter I will do rounds for time and see how many I can crack out in 10mins. Todays 5 rounds took about 6mins I think but wasnt putting the pace on at all. Today was all about survival.

I will be adding something similar to end of Tuesdays session as well - probably the dips / closegrip pressups tricep finisher I sometimes do.
