Thursday Morning At-Home Warm Up/Burpee Test

Attempted a variation on yesterday's CF Virtuosity workout -- added pull-ups to the rotation. The pull ups were a mistake. I should have just done 'em separate and rocked the two-exercise circuit b/c after 3 rounds, the pull-ups were SHOT (only coming one at a time and each one was a huge struggle).

Completed in 14 minutes 10, 9, 8, 7 of the following:

• Pull-ups
• Weighted sit-ups (40lb)
• Burpees

I got the first set of pull-ups unbroken which I was impressed with since it means I can still crank out 10 (even if the 10th was a big effort). That didn't last though -- 2nd round was like 4,2,2,1; 3rd was 3,2,2,1; and 4th was one at a time.

Burpees felt okay -- I was staying mindful of my shoulder, and it did not start to hurt (maintained fairly close hand position on push-ups).

This time would have been much better if not for my pull-up rustiness (and would have completed 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 if not for same). I cranked out the sit ups and burpees quickly and steadily on each set -- all my time was eaten on the pull-ups. For instance, the first set (where the pull ups were unbroken) was completed in 1 minute.

BAH!!!!! at least got heart pumping a little
