Deceivingly Difficult

2 Rounds for reps of:

1 Minute strict pull-ups
1 Minute kipping pull-ups
1 Minute hand release push-ups
1 Minute burpees
1 Minute weighted anchored sit-ups (10 lb plate behind head)
1 Minute military sit-ups (fingers interlaced behind the head with feet anchored)


My reps: 133
strict: 2, 2
kip: 10, 11
p/u: 15, 15
burpee: 8, 8
weighted s/u: 12, 12
mil s/u: 18, 20

Never, ever let yourself think "oh this doesn't look so bad". That's a sure sign you're in for a punishing workout. I hated every single burpee enough for at least triple the number I actually did. I'm obligated to hate them that much, due to their immense evilness. ;)

The sit ups were pretty tough, and I should've been smart and started off with those - would've had higher reps. Ah well, live and learn. Although it was only 12 minutes it was a really good workout!
