300 Workout

[NumberCruncher]

Hey, has anybody done the "300 Workout"?  The trainer in my gym has had it posted on the board for a few weeks and he did it last week.  So, I said, if he can do it, I can do it.  I did it yesterday!!  It's a b!tch!!  I'm still sore (mostly my lower back), but I plan to do it weekly and see what happens.

The 300 Workout
The workout gets its name from the total number of repetitions. But those 300 reps weren't done daily, as some media accounts report, Twight says. Rather, the 300 workout was the finale of months of training, a kind of graduation test, after actors had weight lifted and trained with tools such as medicine balls and Kettlebells (cast iron weights with handles).

It's daunting, and includes these weight-training moves:

25 pull-ups
50 deadlifts at 135 pounds
50 push-ups
50 box jumps with a 24-inch box
50 "floor wipers" (a core and shoulders exercise at 135 pounds)
50 "clean and press" at 36 pounds (a weight-lifting exercise)
25 more pull-ups -- for a total of 300 reps
There's no rest between movements and the score is based on total time, Twight says.

GO AHEAD!!  I dare ya!!

I dont see any point in doing all of that unless you need to be a strong and well conditioned athlete.
