Today, we were given our choice of two hero workouts to attempt. We could choose "the Chelsea" (which is 1 round, every minute on the minute for 30 minutes, of 5 pull-ups, 10 push-ups and 15 air squats) or "The Cindy" (which is as many rounds as possible of the above workout in 20 minutes.) When faced with this choice, 20 something single guy bar logic started working it's course. Did I want to kill myself for the minuscule chance that I could bag the better option, or go for the second prize and lock up a sure thing. My mind was working like Russell Crowe's in that one movie:
You know, Master & Commander
In any case, I (of course) went with the Cindy. Now, even though this was the easier option, I still had to put the odds a little more in my favor. After all, this was a pure body weight loaded workout, and I have more body weight than anyone else in the class. I went with my trusty ring-rows and decided to ratchet down the difficulty of the push-ups by doing them on my knees. In the 20 minutes, I got through 12 complete cycles plus 5 ring rows and 10 push ups. Not the best in the class, but not the worst either.
