A.  Every 2 minutes, for 10 minutes (5 sets):

  • 20 x  Lunges @ 20kg per hand

B. Every 3 minutes, for 15 minutes (5 sets):

  • 4-6 x Bench Press @ 70kg

C.  Three sets of the following:

  • 8 x Single-Arm DB Row @ 20kg
    8 x Weighted Situps @ 10kg
  • 8 x Deadlift @ 60kg

Results:  The format was taken from CF Invictus with some slight modifications.  Part C can also be done resting 45 seconds between sets but I forgot and just did all three rounds in a row.   Part C took 5 minutes, but time is not very important in this one.  Don’t underestimate the Lunges… holding so much weight in each hand for 20 reps kills your upper body and your forearms.
