Must Win in Believeland and the Workout

I am watching the Cavs versus the Warriors in game three. Yes, it is a seven game series but if Cleveland cannot win at home tonight the series is over and you might as well just hand Curry and Thompson the trophy. There is no way in hell that the Cavs will beat the Warriors four games in a row. Kyrie is lighting it up at the moment... LeBron just needs take over.

Warm-Up: Perform each exercise for one minute each to complete a round. Three rounds. No rest between rounds.

Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press, 3 sets of 6-10 repetitions

The Gloves Are Off in Miami and the Workout

Bernie and Hilary are going at it tonight. It seems that with Sanders winning in Michigan, Clinton is going after him. Hilary seemed to get the loudest applause for bashing the Castro regimes for suppressing freedom of speech. Bernie got rousing applause with his closing remarks addressing the discrepancy in wealth between the average American and the top 1% of this country and addressing campaign finance reform. Pretty bruising but at least they were addressing the issues.... not talking about spray tans and hand size?!


Warm Up: Perform each exercise in order for one minute each to complete a set. 3 sets total with no rest.
Heavy Rope Whip
PVC Passthrough
Metabolic Conditioning: Perform each exercise in order to complete a set. No rest. Five sets total for time.
Barbell Ground to Overhead, 15 repetitions
