Pushup Ladders plus Squats

Start the clock and during the first minute perform 1 pushup and 15 squats, then rest for the remainder of the first minute.

During the 2nd minute perform 2 pushups and 15 squats and rest for the remainder of the minute.

Continue increasing the pushups and by one rep each minute plus 15 squats for at least 15 minutes. Continue for as long as you are able, record highest number of pushups you are able to complete.

At the end of 15 minutes, you will have performed 120 pushups and 225 squats. This gets increasing more difficult in a hurry.

It will look like this:

Minute Pushups Squats
1........ 1......15
2........ 2......15
3.........3......15
4.........4..... 15

....... you get the idea

14.......14......15
15.......15......15
continue until you are unable to do any more pushups!

Finish with 50 reps of the Olympic Snatch with PVC or light bar

16 Minutes (+10 push-ups)

Admittedly, my last four "minutes" took a few extra seconds, since the squats were taking longer at the end.

Finished with 30 reps of oly snatch with 15-lb. bar.
