10-min Warrior Challenge (487)

WEDNESDAY 080319

Perform the following exercise for ten minutes straight without resting.  Only jumping jacks are authorized as a rest period.  Keep track of the total number of points (from reps) from each exercise and record your max score after 10 minutes.

Squats (1 point each)
Push ups (2 points each)
Pull ups (3 points each)
Burpees (4 points each)


Performed 10 reps of each exercise the first set for 50 points.  Performed 5 reps of each after that and added 10 squats extra to get 60 points per round up to 450.  Added another 10 extra squats and almost 3 push ups at the end.  Next time I will start with burpees and work my way down to squats.  Will probably try a pyramid of 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 for 550 points.  Should be fun.


Added a round of Tabata Sprints to the end of this workout.  What a smoker!!! Loved it.  Not too much running but it's still a killer workout.  Going to use these at least once a week from now on.  What a great protocol.  I think I will track how far I get around the track and/or my HR from now on.  Should be fun.
