Barbara

5 rounds for time:
20 pull ups
30 push ups
40 sit ups
50 squats
rest precisely 3 minutes between rounds

round times:
4:12
5:13
4:54
6:18
6:08

work time = 26:43
total including 12 minutes rest = 38:43

Completed all of one exercise before moving on to the next. I think this is my PR.

Pull ups unbroken.
Push ups round 3,4, & 5 were terrible, broken down to singles by the end.
Sit ups broken down,too, just tried to keep going.
Squats were pretty well unbroken. Round 3 the quickest!

running time at the end of each round (work time for that round, 1/2/10 time, 5/26/09 time):

1. 4:16 (4:16, 4:25, 4:46)
2 12:13 (4:57, 5:36, 5:27)
3 20:49 (5:36, 6:47, 7:31)
4 30:05 (6:16, 6:54, 7:07))
5 39:54 (6:49, 7:52, 8:16)

all pull ups unbroken...push ups broken down, lots of singles and doubles in 4 &5...sit ups sucked!...squats unbroken and steady

Comparing times to past Barbaras...my total 10/4/08 time was quicker with my highest time on that day being 6:03. I can't imagine that I was truly quicker and in better shape, so I'm guessing I wasn't as strict then on rest times...probably allowing more than 3 minutes. Most likely I started, stopped, and reset the watch, instead of letting it go and just starting as soon as 3 minutes had elapsed from the end of the previous round.

Today's WOD really wasn't too fun. Not too fun at all. Here it is:

"Barbara" - Five rounds, each for time of:
20 Pull-ups
30 Push-ups
40 Sit-ups
50 Squats
Rest precisely three minutes between each round.

Did an AM WOD today since RHS plays in the sectional final tonight. First 2 rounds as Rx. Pullups and pushups unbroken in first round. In the 3rd round, I alternated situps and squats to keep the metcon going, then alternated all exercises in the 4th and 5th rounds. I'd do pullups until failure, then pushups until failure, then situps, then squats. That definitely helped my times in the final 2 rounds and kept my heartrate up, so everybody wins, right?

Times were 4:31, 5:21, 7:13, 6:59, 6:16. Just over 30 minutes of work with 12 minutes of rest...total time including rest was 42:20 for 100 pullups, 150 pushups, 200 situps, and 250 squats.

Got home and was ready to do some burpees before I showered and got 9 done...then my body said, "What the heck do you think you're doing?" It didn't want to cooperate with my mind. I'll do the rest later...
