AMERICAN HERO
Be your own hero in this set by completing 100 reps of the A exercise. Start your timer for 1 minute and complete as many reps of exercise A as possible. Remember how many reps you completed (let’s say you completed 30) and then move to a minute of exercise B as active recovery. Then go back to the same A exercise and pick up where you left off (31, 32, 33, 34… ) on your way to 100 reps. Complete as many 1 minute rounds alternating between A and B exercises until you complete the entire 100 reps of the A exercise. Once you complete your 100 reps move to the next set and perform in the same fashion. If an exercise has a right and left, perform half the reps on each side.
