The Thang:

Fast Mosey around park to the Playground.

Instructions: Modified Chelsea

The Chelsea WOD is a Cross-Fit workout where you do 5 Pull-Ups, 10 Push-Ups, and 15 Squats every minute on the minute. We added 20 crunches to the set, and did it for 30 minutes (#CrowdPleaser).

Let’s call this Man-U (i.e. Manchester United, Chelsea’s hated Premier League Rival)

So, that’s 5 Pull-Ups, 10 Push-Ups, 15 Squats, and 20 LBCs, every minute on the minute for 30 minutes.

Totals: 150 Pull-Ups, 300 Push-Ups, 450 Squats, and 600 LBCs, and we were only half-way through.
