A very good workout. It was exhausting, but much more gratifying by pyramiding down, rather than up, as I'd done in previous ring workouts.

warmup: 10 reps of all the following exercises with a 10 lb. sledge
-------
16 lb. sagittal sledge hits: 15, 12, 10
16 lb. frontal sledge hits: 15, 12, 10
16 lb. low lateral sledge hits: 8/7, 8/7; 7/5, 7/5; 5/5, 5/5

21 lb. medicine ball thrusters: 12, 12, 20

Good workout! I felt a bit groggy before starting it, and never exactly felt "amped" during it, but once I got warmed and got into a rhythm, I felt more energized. This workout not only technically had more reps (by 1) than last time, but was also more intense, since I rested only about 30 seconds between every exercise and set.
