This one is brutal. Every round seems to compound in difficulty. First round took a bit over 2:30, next was around 4:00, then 6 minutes, then 7+ minutes for the last two rounds. This morning I slayed a dragon.

Routine of the Day – Complete 5 rounds for time

• 135lbs Deadlift, 20 reps
• 20 Pullups
• 75lbs Power Hanging Clean, 20 reps
• 20 Knees-to-Elbows

Time – 27:24

Routine of the Day - Complete as many rounds as possible of

• 12 Kettlebell Swings, 1 pood
• 12 Burpees
• 12 Toes-to-Bars

Managed 8 rounds + 7 Toes to Bars. Just missed my goal of 9 rounds.

Routine of the Day – 3 Rounds for Time

• Row, 0.5 miles
• 50 Thrusters, 45lbs Olympic Bar (ass to grass and elbows to knees at bottom, bar locked overhead at top)
• 30 Pullups

Time – 30:46

I think I hate thrusters more then any other exercise I do regularly. My legs were on fire so bad after the first round it was hard to rep 10 in a row without needing to break.

Routine of the Day – Complete as many rounds as possible in 25 minutes of

• 6 Pullups
• 6 Ring Dips
• 8 Handstand Pushups
• 8 1-Arm KB Swings, 1 pood, left
• 8 1-Arm KB Swings, 1 pood, right

Completed 11 rounds + 6 Pullups

Routine of the Day – Death By Pullups

On a continuously running clock, do 1 Pullup for the first minute, 2 for the second, 3 for the third minute and so on until you are unable to complete the required number of repetitions.

Completed 17 minutes, + 14 reps on the 18th minute.

I find the first 10 minutes pretty dull, so I used the downtime to practice handstands into forward rolls.

This is one of my favorites.

Routine of the Day - Burpee Hell

For time complete 20-19-18-17…5-4-3-2-1 of

• Burpees
• Situps

Time – 19:14

I lumped together 3-2-1 into a final round of 6 reps. Cheating… I know.

Routine of the Day – Tabata This! 20 Seconds work, 10 seconds rest, 8 rounds per exercise. Going for best score (lowest of 8 rounds)

The Tabata interval is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest for 8 intervals.
Tabata score is the least number of reps performed in any of the eight intervals. Unit for the row is “calories”.

• Pullups – 7
• Squats – 21
• Pushups – 17
• Situps – 17
• Row (calories) – 6 (actually was 12, but I have come to the conclusion it shows 2x the actual burned)

Score – 68
