High Expectations.
I'll save you all the reading for this workout. There isn't much to be said about it really. I just designed it to be very difficult. I fully expect everyone to be struggling with this one, but I also fully expect everyone to finish, and finish strong. Can you live up to these expectations?
The Stinger.

Notice I did not make it a full pyramid. Just a three round torture test that reduces it's volume each round, only to increase it suddenly in that fourth "bonus" round. This will not only challenge you to push yourself just that little bit further, but it will challenge you to go the extra mile! This is that grit that comes out in the fourth quarter of a good football game, or the last round of a boxing match. This is that last push that only the great possess. Workouts like the stinger teach us that even though a workout should have been over a round ago, we are tough enough for anything. This builds confidence and strength. It also prepares you to take on any task, no matter how mush abuse you have already endured. The Bear does not give up easily, and neither should you.
