Day 11: Exemplars Of Fitness

"It will come as no surprise to most of you that our view of fitness is a Contrarian view. The General Public both in opinion and in the media holds endurance athletes (triathletes,marathon runners, etc) as exemplars of fitness. We do not."

Who said it? When?

Strength
Rest

WOD
3 rounds of:
20 kettle bell swings (Guys 88# Advanced or 70# scaled / Ladies 70# advanced or 50# scaled)
15 hand stand pushups (or piked pushups if you need to scale)
5 Ring muscle ups (or 5 chest to bar pullups scaled)
Rest = time it takes to complete a round
*Sprint through each round as fast as possible

Rest 10 Min

Then Complete the following
2000M Run
Rest 4 Min
1500M Run
Rest 3 min
1000M Run

*record your overall time it takes to complete, including the rest.
Post times to comments

Here is a Good article defining FITNESS. I find it crazy that no one has attempted to really define what fitness is until 2002. I ask anyone out there who disagrees with this article to write something that makes better sense or to provide another article that explains fitness in a better way. Don't worry, Ill Wait.
