If you can do this workout, it will take you about 30 minutes and will burn approximately 500 calories for the average female. I just did this today and WOW, am I exhausted!!

"Filthy Fifty" (Crossfit WOD)
1/2 mile run (warmup)
50 box jumps
50 jumping pull ups
50 kettlebell swings (35#)
50 walking lunges
50 knees to elbows (hanging)
50 wall ball shots (medicine ball 12-20#)
50 push press (25-45# barbell)
50 back extensions (can do on swiss ball)
50 burpees
50 double unders or 150 regular jump ropes

    Sounds great, but I don't know what some of those exercises are. Can you give explanations?

    This video should explain but if you have any specific questions just ask!! The reason I love CF so much is because you can do it at home with limited or no equipment. All of the workouts can be found online for free!

    30 minutes total?? It would take me nearly 20 min to get through 50 burpies alone, then I'd be too exhausted to do anything else. But this is very similar to one of my boot camp days, when he calls it "50's Day" - 50 reps of very similar exercises.

    Sweet holy hell that sounds fun. I think I'm gonna do that on top of the 1000 calories I already burn in 30 minutes with my HIIT elliptical routine.

    I just don't have some of the equipment, like kettlebells, but the ones that I can do, sound like something I would love to add to my day.

    You can always sub a dumbbell for a kettlebell if you're doing swings! Just an FYI!
