Mobility:
Usual SJ routine plus push-ups

Foam roller drills

Variety day-
Did all this random practice style as described in Beyond Bodybuilding. Do a set of one drill, take a short rest and move on to a different drill. I tried to keep mixing it up between upper and lower body, push and pull, easy and hard. This was a great way to get all the work done quickly and still maintain a high quality on the individual sets.
-Push press 32kg 3x4
-One arm swing 32kg 3x5
-Pistol 5x1
-Pull-up 5x5
-TGU 24kg 5x1
-DL 285x5, 255x5
-Wrist roller 2x2 trips
-Band assisted Janda 3x5
-2 hand plate pinch DL 65 3x5
Used a 1:30 countdown timer throughout and got everything done in less than 48 minutes.

How'd ya like those side planks?
Interesting session to say the least - like strength circuit training, or did you pair the exercises up and in a kinda EDT way?
Side planks are a killer. We used to do this thing my track coach called "5 minute core" that was just 5 minutes of various plank holds with no rest between. This took me back to that a little.
As far as the order of drills, it was probably a little bit of both EDT and circuit training. If you are interested in seeing how it went, the order of the drills was as follows-
Push Press (PP)
Pistol (PL)
Swing (SW)
Pull-up (PU)
TGU
DL
Wrist roller (WR)
PL
TGU
PP
PU
Janda (JA)
DL
Plate Pinch DL (PPDL)
PI
TGU

PPDL

As you can see, quite a bit of switching around.
Man you ain't kidding!! Bet it kept it interesting though.
Yes. It was a great way to do the workout because some of the drills get a little boring when I just do them as straight sets. This way I worked up a nice sweat and kept moving more. Also can't complain about reducing the amount of gym time. I like working out, but time always seems to be at a premium lately.
