Burpee Pullups - 12/7/2012
Welcome to GrindItOut. The place for like-minded calesthenic, bodyweight, and light dumbell excercise fanatics that obsess about fitness and diet. My goal is for this to be a place that my friends will join me, challenge me, and have fun with me on a daily basis. Like CrossFit, I hope to post a workout each day (my friends can post too). Unlike CrossFit, I'm not a big fan of heavy weight / bar excersizes (or machines for that matter). Thus, I want these workouts to be 20-30 minutes long and intense so that I can get in a quick workout during lunch, eat a quick lunch of rice and beans (best lunch ever) and get back to work within an hour. So, think up your best workouts, name them, and post them here. A little competition never hurts as well. Today my buddy Mike and I challenged each other to 100 burpee pullups. If you are not familiar with burpees, jump down, do a pushup, and jump up to standing again. You just did a burpee. If you do a pullup between each of them, that's a burpee pullup. I did 100 in 25:18 for the first day of GrindingItOut. What shall we do tomorrow?????????????

Maybe not tomorrow (that was a lot of pull ups today), but very soon, we need to do the Murph. It's the epitome of a crossfit workout. Run a mile. Do 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 air squats. Divide however you like. Then run another mile. It's traditional to run the mile wearing a weighted vest, but thankfully I don't have one. :-)
ReplyDeleteFor tomorrow, I propose:
ReplyDeleteFor time, three rounds of
Run 800 m (0.5 mile)
Rest two minutes
Right on.... I woke up stiff this morning... not so much now, but really a mess this morning.
ReplyDeleteSo is that just a three half miles with rest in between... Is that all you've got!
