I think the fitness standard should be for one to do their best. And the only way to do that is to do something one enjoys.

Hmmm, a good WOD (Workout Of the Day) would be:

4 rounds

  1. 400m run
  2. 25 20" Box Step Ups
  3. 25 deadlift (barbell or dumbell or kettle bell) weight varied 45# - 65#
  4. 25 kettle bell swings 35# or 55#
  5. 10 push-ups
  6. 25 sit-ups
  7. 2 minute rest

My knees can't handle running, so I replaced the 400m run with 15 Burpees.

I did this WOD workout after an upper body workout, so I'm going to try it again by itself. Wish me luck.

Good Job!  I hate Burpees.. those are the worst.I probably would have replaced the 400m run with doing 300m on the rower.
