The Dirty Thirties
Had the pleasure of a girlfriend of mine from Sydney join me here in Canberra for a session on Saturday.
I missed my usual 6am session with the boys as I had drank to much the night before after winning the Australian Telstra Business of the Year Cba award. So we set up a time to train at 3pm ( giving me enough time to recover).
We did a modified version of what is called the ‘Dirty Thirties’, and let me say it wasn’t pretty from either of us.
This was one tough cross fit cardiovascular / strength session that really tested us both out…
The Dirty Thirties
60kg Deadlift
Hanging Knee Tucks
16kg Renegade Rows
Burpees
30kg Clean & Press
Push Ups
Rower 30 calories
For each individual exercise we had to complete 30 reps before we moved on to the next exercise.
Let me say this was a tough day at the office, it bought both of us unstuck at the end, and I reckon we spent at least 15 minutes on the ground trying to recover.
I am glad there was not too many people in the gym, as some of the noises of us grunting to lift the weights would have been quite disturbing to people.

Always a good sign when it takes about three hours for your heart rate to slow down. Loved this session, and will keep this in the bag for a few of my fitter Personal Training clients.

I am still aching, but at least my hands have stopped shaking and the waves of nausea have passed!
