Nothing worthwhile in this life comes without sacrifice.

Decided to make a journal instead of making each workout a thread in the CF section.

Tomorrow, my first workout of this journal will be....Cindy, modified by me. I hope I can last though, gonna be doin her for 20 mins.

5 Pullups = 1 Pullup (-4)
10 Pushups = 5 Pushups (div. 2)
15 Squats = 7 Squats (div. 2)

Good luck with your goals!
Actually, what are your goals?

Good luck. I'm going to do some kind of WOD tonight.

I'd keep Cindy as is, that's too much changing for 20 minutes. You'll get through like 50 rounds with your scaled version. Your workout is equivalent to the Puppies workout, near same reps, but longer duration.

Puppies:
Complete as many rounds in 12 minutes as you can of:
1 Pull-ups (or 3 Jumping Pull ups)
4 Push-ups
7 Squats

5 pull ups really isn't that much (assisted or not) , neither is 10 pushups or 15 squats. Are you using weight for the squats??

Cindy scaled
15 rds @ 20:00

Comments: Pullups were strong, Pushups got weak the last set and the squats were killer at the end also. Next time, adding 2 to everything.

General fitness, better cardio.

Thanks.

The only things on Cindy that I couldn't do for long periods of time are the pullups and pushups and I wanted to be able to do it for the full 20 mins. Next time, I plan to make the Pullups 3 and Pushups 7 and the squats 9.

My pullups and pushups suck, so I picked a number I know I could do for an extended period of time. I did air squats.

Good job with the 15 rounds!!

I'm glad you'll scaled it differently next time than your original plan. I think you would would tire more from swapping apparatus with such low reps.
