* Another quick and  intense upper body workout. The goal is to build up to 10 reps of each exercise, and all have to be done within 1 min.
* Friend of mine sent me this workout, and I believe the he got the idea from CrossFit, so the dips supposed to be done on the rings, and pull ups are "CrossFit style" using momentum or swinging motion to get your chin above pull up bar..

Enjoy
