Full Body Attack

Execute the Full Body Attack (FBA) in the following manner:
12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22
Perform Alternating Bent-Over Rows with Mountain Climber Push-ups in ascending sets 1 - 10

I used a pair of 62# kettlebells for the Full Body Attack; however, my variation of this exercise is done by performing a Bent-Over Row and then a Push-up, using an eight count. This was total cardio and left me feeling as though I had been in a fight with a bear. I chose the rowing movement to rest my shoulders as well as to give my back some work without further damaging my left hand, which felt a little less sensitive today. It took me 30 minutes to get through these 102 reps of the Full Body Attack. Once I finished though, I spent 15 minutes experimenting with a new combination that I had just put together, four-count Alternating Bent-Over Rows and then four-count Mountain-Climber Push-ups in ascending sets. I did first one rep, then two, then three reps, then four. I had to cut it short at the eighth set. Had to get ready for work. This is a good one, an excellent cardio and strength conditioner.

Time: 48:00, 102 FBA, 36 ABORw/MC 36, (Push-ups 138)
