CrossFit Day 54
Today’s workout was one I’ve attempted once before. The instructions were simple—start a clock and do one pullup the first minute, two the second minute, and so on, increasing sets by one per minute until you’re unable to finish a set in a minute. I was able to do seven sets (of jumping pullups) last time. This time I got nine and a half.
My results: 11:02, 3:00 zone (hard); HR: 128 avg, 168 max; 99 cal
It was really ridiculously cold this evening, so I busted out my sets and headed back inside, but this workout didn’t burn very many calories. I added a second workout inside my house. It’s a variation on a supplemental workout I concocted a month ago.
Descending Front Back Go
10 rounds for time (Descending from 10 to 1):
- 1x pushups (Front)
- 2x situps (Back)
- 3x squats (Go)
In other words, there are 10 pushups, 20 situps, and 30 squats in round 1. Round 2 has 9 pushups, 18 situps, and 27 squats. Round 3 is 8, 16, and 24. You can see the pattern, right? This ends up making the total exercise consist of 55 pushups, 110 situps, and 165 squats. Fun, fun. Next time, I’m really going to try to knock this one out faster.
My results: 20:08, 15:40 zone (hard); HR: 146 avg, 165 max; 228 cal
