Exercise: Did the 1000 Challenge today

Did Ballantyne's TT1000 workout today for a change of pace.

100 Jumping Jacks
25 close-grip pushups
25 jumps
25 pullups
100 squats
50 mountain climbers
25 stickups
100 pushups
50 walking lunges
50 underhand inverted rows
Plank (100 seconds)
50 Stability Ball Leg Curls
50 Decline Pushups
25 overhand inverted rows
50 mountain climbers
50 squats
25 chinups
100 Jumping Jacks

Took 35 minutes. Note that each exercise does not need to be done all at once. For example, with pushups I did 25, 20, 15, 15, 12, 8, and 5 to get to the total of 100.

This is obviously a relatively advanced workout, but the number of reps per exercise could be cut in half or even fourths for those who would like a little challenge on more of a beginner scale. I should also note that my form, unfortunately, was not as good as it should have been on some of the pull-ups, chin-ups, and inverted rows. I'll do better next time. This was my very first time with this routine. Enjoy!
