Chipotle Beef with Guacamole & Pico de Gallo
Benchmark Workouts
Every minute on the minute for 30 minutes perform:
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats
Robustly spiced ground beef is topped with a creamy guacamole and a zesty pico de gallo, delivering a satisfying blend of smoky, spicy, and tangy flavors.
Factors like impact, motivation, perception, recovery, and timing combine with decades of experience seasoned by luck and intuition in designing and crafting workouts.
If you fall behind the clock, keep going for 30 minutes and see how many rounds you can complete.
We did this 8 weeks ago, so let’s check in and see if we’ve improved. If you finished this workout last time, add 1 rep to each exercise — i.e., 6 pull-ups, 11 push-ups, and 16 squats each minute. If you missed the interval, try again and see if you can hang on for longer than before.
