Did a MEAN circuit yesterday. 3 rounds of the following
push up complex (10 regular, 5 ass-to-heals hindu, 5 twisting)
core work (R1= bicycles, R2=v-ups, R3= front-right-left planks)
2rep-5hold chin up drill
2 double 24KG man-makers
5R/5L renegade rows.
On last rep of the 24KG man maker the bells were not going above my ears so I dropped the bells and stepped back. When the 24KG ADER hit the ground that fucker BROKE! The handle fell right off! WTF! NOT COOL. Not just because I am out a bell, but because that bastard could have broken over my head. 53lbs of solid steel falling on my noggin sounds like a bad time.
Side note, those twisting push ups are brutal on the shoulders and my biceps are destroyed from the 2rep/5hold chin up drills. You don't need sissy-primadonna-curl exercises; two words: CHIN UPS.

Crap, I thought those aders were single-cast. I figured they were indestructible.
