Harlan's Basement: Lotsa Squats and Plenty o'Pushin'

15 minute EMOM:
15 air squats.
AMRAP push-ups in the remaining time.

17, 11,11, 9, 10, 10, 9, 9, 10, 9, 10, 9, 8, 7, 10,

Total is 142.


Of course, this was Harlan's fucking idea.   After about three rounds, I moaned at him, "You still think this is a good idea?"

But after six rounds, I settled into a nice pattern.  The trick is not trying too hard.  In Round 1, I finished the squats in something like 22 seconds.

My body was like, "Hold on, bucko! What's your rush? That leaves WAY too much time to do push-ups."

After that, the squats got done around the 30-35 second mark.
