First Time for Cindy

Cindy is a Crossfit Work out of the day that consists of doing:
  1. 5 pullups
  2. 10 pushups
  3. 15 squats
You do this rotation as many times as possible in 20 minutes.
I got through this routine 7 times, I did it all as prescribed but I had to use the green band for the pullups.  This is an improvement for me since not to long ago I couldn't do any pullups with the green band.  The pushups were the hardest, I tended to have to pause around 6 rest for a bit then do the last four.  Overall I was pretty happy with this.  As a warm up to this I did 5 minutes at a 5 incline and a 3.5 pace on the treadmill, then I did 3 sets of 5 x 16" box jumps, 5 burpees, and 5 cleans with a weighted pvc.  This was tough to tell myself to do, since I hate burpees, but I need to get better at them, and doing them is the only way.  The whole workout took me 45 minutes, I burned 570 calories and my heart rate averaged 155 and maxed out at 185.
