Circuits, The Beast, Push, Punch and Jump

I started my day by working out with a couple of clients. We walked the Beast and then did 5 circuits of pullups, pushups, SB crunches, squats, DB shoulder presses, DB curls and ran one lap of the upper part of the driveway (approx 150 yards with a mild incline). As on Tuesday, the key to this workout is the target reps on each exercise is 15 but once you reach 15 you still have to continue until the last person hits 15 reps on whichever exercise they are doing. We then walked the Beast again.
In the afternoon, I did some moderately heavy bench presses, supersets of DB flyes and DB bench presses, followed by more pushups. After this, I spent 20 mins with the heavy bag and jump rope.
