10 x Burpees
10 x Sit-ups

*This is a longer workout (the fastest I have been able to do it is 26 Minutes).  That being said, you may want to set a time goal for yourself (20 / 25 / 30 min) and turn in into an AMRAP.  See how many round you can get in during the time you set.

*Key to success is to set a moderate pace and sit to it.  Don't go so fast you need to constantly stop and rest.  You want to be able to move from movement to movement with as little transition time, and as few breaks, as possible...think of it like running a 5K, don't go so hard you have to walk after the 1st mile.
