Death by DB Man makers - every minute perform 1 DB manmaker - every additional minute adds 1 more rep. minute 1 = 1 rep minute 2= 2 reps minute 3=3 reps and so on... This will be challenging. Once you cannot complete the required reps in the minute window you are done. Note the last minute you successfully finish, We will re do this workout! Also when you are finished, take that rep you failed and hit it for 2 more sets with 2 minutes rest between. EX: I failed to complete 8 reps on round 8. - note my score. then, complete 1x8 db manmakers , rest 2 min, and do 1 more set of 8 db manmakers

FAQs
Who is this for?
This is for someone who has limited equipment options who isn't willing to just watch life go by why they get out of shape. They are going to attack life head on, and use what they have to get better. Period
What if I only have 1 DB or KB's
kettlebells can be substituted. Also all movements can be scaled with 1 item rather than two. In some cases one is better because two may be to difficult.
I have questions or need help are the coaches available?
yes, you can hit us up in the messenger portion of the train heroic app, please give us 36 hours to respond.
