Notes:
  The primary purpose of this workout was to get my heart rate up and keep it there for an extended period of time.  The 2 minute rest period was usually just enough to set up the next part and get a drink of water.  It also revealed some things that I'm weak on... primarily HSPU and Toes to Bar.  After the 2nd round I couldn't manage 4 HSPU unbroken, but I moved right through the OHS each time.  I started to get a decent rhythm on the TTB at the end, but if my form was better I would have definitely been able to move faster.  I kept the weights light with the goal of avoiding actual muscle failure... I wanted this to be a long metcon/suckfest, not a fight to complete each rep.
