New Years Dose of Awesomeness

It's that time of year again guys. You know when everyone has decide that this is the year for change, that this is the year they finally peal themselves off the dorito stained sofa and finally make it to the gym 5 times a week...for all of one day.


It's our responsibility as the care takers of Awesomeness to spread it to all those underprivileged souls around the world. So go forth Army of Awesome, spread the Awesomeness as far and wide as possible. And while you're at it why not bring in the new year with a burpee or 100.

*Last 2011 WOD* 12/31/11

This is the last workout of 2011 so lets hit it hard!

Strength:

OFF


Conditioning:

Advanced
  12 deadlifts (365#/255#) <- days in a year ;)
  31 kb swings (70#/53#) <- weeks in a year...based off a Myan calendar...shut up, just go with it!
  2011m row

Intermediate
  12 deadlifts (295#/205)
  31 kb swings (53#/35#)
  2011m row 

Beginnner
  12 deadlifts (225#/155#)
  31 kb swings (35#/20#)
  2011m row


You guys know the deal scale as necessary, but DO NOT SCALE THE  ROW. I swear if anyone lowers it I will find you and give you the sickest purple nurple you've ever had.


*Remember: The scaled down versions are merely suggestions. You can pick and choose the things you need to scale. The prescribed weights or reps may seem extreme at times, but that is because I program for top level athletes. Do not be ashamed to do the Intermediate, Beginner or Novice weights or reps; everyone has to start somewhere. Make it a goal of yours to do the advanced WOD if you cannot already do so. 

Happy New Year AoA!
