Dunno what's been up lately -- I try to do anything even remotely hard and I get sick, dizzy, and my lungs still have pressure when I work out.

I tried to mix it up -- running .2 miles, then doing 10 pushups, 5 pullups, and 10 lunuges -- but I got through the first set and I started getting sick. BLARGH.

I think I'll do this over many days. Each point set per day, maybe.

My friend and I just started doing these WOD on Tuesday, and although they are intense, we love them.

We did 7.5 points worth.
APK Warm up + 1/4 mile jog
1 - 1 mile run
1 - 30 box jumps
3 - 100 squats
2.5 - 50 Burpees

Neither of us have the strength to get through the burpees, and we tried to make up for it by doing an L sit, but couldn't even get into the right position.

...so I couldn't post yesterday. My Goal was to do a bunch of exercises, broken into 5 segments.
The work outs were the 5 min Handstand, 25 L-Pull Ups, 100 burpees, 10x100 Sprints, and 1 min Plank.
I achieved 3 segments with ending totals of:
4 min Handstand (got an extra one before time ran out)
15 L-Pull Ups
60 Burpees
6x100 Sprints
3x1 min Planks Tot.Pnts:15?

I really enjoyed this workout because it gave an awesome sense of urgency that is necessary to be used to in Parkour as a Traceur is to think about chasing or being chased. It was also like a "Create-Your-Own-Workout" where I was able to challenge myself and work the areas I felt needed more work for me. THIS WAS AWESOME!!! THANK YOU!!!

(It had a sweat factor of about an 8.7 though.)
