While at a martial arts retreat in Colorado, Keith was invited to participate in a Crossfit workout.  No big deal, until you realize that you are over 9,000 feet above sea level!  Doing burpees without the benefit of oxygen was such a fun experience, Keith wanted to share it with everyone at Forteza!

Low Alititude workout

While it isn’t possible to replicate low oxygen here in Illinois, feel free to do some sprints, pull-ups, or Kettlebell complexes to pre-fatigue yourself before attempting this workout:

Five rounds of: 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 of two handed kettlebell swings, burbees, and sit-ups

Set the clock at thirty minutes.  If you can’t complete it in the allotted time, then try again next week.  Good luck!
