Angie, Angie, Angie, pretty name not so pretty workout. Angie is a classic Crossfit workout and it is as simple as it comes but completing it is not so simple.
Perform For Time:
100 Pull-ups
100 Push-ups
100 Sit-ups
100 Squats
If you are a beginner try scaling it down to 50 reps of each or even 25.
Like always with these types of workouts be sure to write down what your time is so you can track your progress for next time. This week I tried Angie for the first time and completed it in 22:09 so next time I try it I’m shooting for less than 20 minutes!
To see something really impressive watch the best of the best in the Crossfit world, Annie Thorisdottir do “Angie” in 15:40.
It’s been so cold lately and no body wants to leave the house but that doesn’t mean you can’t still workout! With this workout you can do it right in your living room, bedroom or wherever you have enough space to just squat, lunge and do mountain climbers! Do 10 rounds of 20 each for time. With the Mountain Climbers do 20 each leg every round. Record your time so you can track your progress!
I went to Florida this weekend for an Always A Home Game trip and had an amazing time traveling to about 20 different Steelers bars across the state. At these bars I also ate a lot of food — unhealthy food. So, when Monday came around and we just happened to stay right on a beach I made sure I woke up extra early to get a workout in before we started another day of traveling! I was lucky enough to have a beach right outside my door but if you are traveling and looking for a simple on the road workout, this could definitely be done in a hotel room as well!
5 rounds of:
30 push ups 40 sit ups 50 squats
rest 1 minute after each round
Keep track of your time so you have something to shoot for next time you do it.
I finished in 26 minutes. A word of advice, definitely lay down a towel for the sit ups or even better a yoga mat.
The view was so beautiful that it seemed to make the workout feel a little bit easier. And the 60 degree weather increase from Pennsylvania to Florida wasn’t too bad either!
Try this out next time you are on the road or do it from home and let me know what you think!
And as a bonus here is some of the work I did on this trip, this is the video that played on the jumbotron at the Steelers game.
