  • Chelsea Workout

    Every minute on the minute for 30 minutes, complete the following:

    5 pullups
    10 pushups
    15 squats

    The faster you complete, the more rest you get. E.g., You complete 5/10/15 in 1:25, you get 35 seconds to rest before next round kicks .off.

    10 minute cool down, then run to the lantern and back!
    Completed all rounds and run

    **fell behind by two, then around the last three rounds tore a callus so i skipped the last 15 pullups

    3 RFT
    Row 300m
    10 Wall Ball 14/20
    10 Pull Up
    10 Knees To Elbows

    Row was strong. Wall balls harder than I thought as straight after the row, I was finding it hard to breathe and also found it hard to find my rhythm. Need to work on my grip on the pull up bars as that's where I lose my time. Gained a nasty blood blister on each hand during the last round. Transitions were really slow too. I just seem to be off. Really wanted under 15 minutes, but oh well. Had a rough weekend food wise, so definitely feeling it!
