Originally I'd do this workout as prescribed but then I decided to modify it a bit. My 25 lbs backpack just doesn't have handles that are comfortable enough to do the cleans.
So here what I did instead:
Complete 3 cycles, without putting the weight down:
6 Presses
6 Squats
6 Bent Over Rows
Then with similar sequence and method (6-6-6 without putting my weight down in between sets), I continued with bodyweight strength training:
Leg Raises
Reverse Push Ups
SB Squats (25 lbs backpack)
Diagonal Knee Raises
Pistols (each leg)

Bodyrock.tv: Extreme Workout Challenge
A very old workout from Zuzana from 2009 which I don't usually look into. Since I know that I could already skip, lunge and squat properly, it's time to tackle this!
Workout: Complete 2 rounds (or 3 if I could handle it)
300 high knees skipping
20 burpees
40 backward lunge & kick up
I completed 2 rounds in 17:59. Next time I came to this, I'll try to beat this time and then it might be the time for me to complete 3 rounds. :)

My Own Time Challenge Workout
Happy Thanksgiving to the ones who are celebrating in the US. I made up my own workout today and it was great!
Workout:
Do at least 2 or 5 rounds
1 minute double unders (I did my best to do single-under-single rhythm)
20 leg raises on a dip station
20 weighted squats (I used 20lbs backpack)
20 reverse body rows (aka reverse push ups) - try to do them with both legs straight or 1 bent leg (I did 1 bent leg in the beginning and had to modify to both bent legs)
I completed 3 rounds in about 15 minutes.
Too easy? Then Do 5 rounds! Use more weight for the squats, straighten both legs when doing the reverse body rows or even better do strict pull ups instead!
Extras: 15 pistols (3 sets of 5 each leg)
