GameChanger Workout (Game Day #8 @ Markham YMCA

6 rounds
8 sets / round
Each set = work + active rest
work = 30 s, 45 s, 60 s, 75 s, ... then back down -.-
rest = 15 s each
goal: accumulate max reps

A huge congratulations to all my friends who competed (CrossFit Markham, Rak Chazak Markham / London, Iron Dragons). A super awesome congrats to the two teams that made it to the finals (Young Guns from CFM, and Monster Kookies who ended up winning it all!). And finally, a SUPER HUGE SHOUT OUT to Kimi, who laid her heart out there, toughing it out not only in the competition, but in the hospital too!
