more advanced

i did a crossfit workout called "helen" the other day. (there is a series of benchmark workouts, called "the girls," that are a real bitch, so to speak.)

it is 3 rounds of the following:
400m run
21 kettlebell swings (prescribed - 1.5 pood, which is 54 pounds)
12 pullups

i had to use a 40lb dumbbell as the kettlebells went quickly. (using a dumbbell sucks since they are much harder to control, but 54lb would have been tough). i finished in 10:15.
