12 minutes of heck

AMRAP 12 (becuase everyone does multiples of 5)
6 burpees
12 x 22kg dumbbell swings

8 rounds

I may have been able to cope with 12 burpees/round. I wasn't approaching muscular exhaustion in any round, which surprised me. I think the jumping component of burpees staves that off for longer. Interesting.
Swings were unpleasant from the general "god I'm buggered" point of view, in fact aht applied to teh whole thing really.

Exactly what I wanted. Short enough not to wipe me out for the next few days, hard enough to get me severely winded, no muscular exhaustion in any component.
