Three rounds for time of:
25 Sit-ups
25 Thrusters (off 10" box), (~25 RM load)
3 Rope Climb

Notes:
1. Try this sit-up: touch fingers from opposite hands together
behind thighs without touching your legs with your arms, hands,
or fingers then lower back to flat on ground with hands overhead.
2. Thruster, as a reminder, is a front squat/push-press. With what
percentage of your body weight can you complete the 25 reps?
3. Climb rope in "L" if you're able.
4. Minimize time to completion.

"I don't understand how it is that someone with only seven pull-ups
could ask me how they could increase their muscle mass or strength.
The obvious answer is, "work until you've got thirty pull-ups and you'll
come back with five new pounds of lats and biceps alone." This kind of
thing is true of squats, deadlifts, push-press, muscle-ups, dips and any
other fundamental, functional movements. Athletes regularly working
the basic movements never ask how they can get stronger or bigger
they already know."
Greg Glassman - Coach

Here in a letter to The Journal of the American Medical Association
Dr's Winett and Carpinelli challenge the proposition that low intensity
(long slow distance) exercise affords better health protection than
higher intensity exercise.
