Every 2 minutes on the minute do Back Squats as follows:

5-5-5-5-5 @ 80kg

Then for time complete:

  • Row 30 calories
  • 30 x Wall Balls
  • 30 x Pullups
  • 30 x Box Jumps
  • 30 x Snatches @ 30kg
  • 30 x Burpees
  • Row 30 calories

Results:  16:15.  The original workout also had Toes to Bar as a the second set, but I forgot to do it when I was working out so if you are up to an extra challenge add them into the mix.  Be warned, as written it was already really hard.
