Back at it

Most of my trainees have had some time off (hence the clock) for vacation and other things so I decided to go easy on them.  Just kidding.

This is a fun mix of exercises.  The intent as always is to build muscle and burn fat.  A recent study demonstrated the enzyme stimulated in our muscle "AMPK" is a master switch to burning fat for fuel.  Sounds good to me.  So here is another of that kind of workout.

Complete the following triplet 5 times.  But after each time you do it, select one of the below exercises to do.  Once you complete it, go back and do another of the triplet.  So I don't want you to do 5 rounds of the triplet at once, just one round and then the additional exercise.

Triplet:
10 pullups
20 pushups
30 squats

additional exercises (in between each triplet)
100m farmer carry 2x40#dumbbells
20 sumo deadlift high pull 95#
100 squats
20 weighted dips (30#)
20 weighted situps (20#)

My time was 14:55
Taylor was 15:00
Amalia finished 16:45
