I love get ups, but I love training in my driveway even more. When the weather is cold or at least mild, I can perform get ups on the horse stall pad in my driveway, but it is too stinking hot lately. So either I go in the house to complete my get ups or I change my workout. This week, I have changed my workout to omit get ups and replace them with a few clean and presses and a few rounds of snatches. I am losing some whole body stabilization work, but getting a reasonably challenging shoulder workout. So far, the only problem has been the challenge to the calluses on my palms from the snatches.
