warmup:
i think using the different sized medicine balls is a really effective warmup, not as intense as the kb complex or med ball rugby (which are good in their own right) but we need to work out a better structure, probably using some of the online med ball workout resources we have access to.

the workouts were much harder than they look on paper; i reckon they need to be tuned a bit to be more effective. i'm thinking something like 100-200m run for the first one and 50m/5pushups for the second one.

i think this would really tighten it up and we would need to add in some kind of rest to the cycle so maybe working in groups of 3: run, push press/rack hold/rest and something similar for workout 2.

would also work with groups of 4 or 5 and either adding in another exercise or combining these 2 with a rest period etc.
