death by pullup - ewww.....scary!

Death by Pullup:
With a continuously running clock, perform one pullup the first minute, two the second, three the third, and so on until you cannot complete the prescribed number.

This for 2 rounds. Sounds a bit innocuous, right? Hee hee, keep on thinkin', cause by round 6 or 7 it certainly ain't so easy. I got up to round 9 plus a couple...total pull ups were at 105ish.

I'm not certain what exactly has happened to me...we were told once you drop out, you need to do 5 pushups per round until the last person drops. Well, I decide, my pullups are so lame (still strapped into the big blue bands, with some jump), that I need to do the prescribed number of pushups after I fell.

So, while, my pull ups were at 105 - not super lame, but not spectacular...at least I threw in an extra 60-70 pushups. At least those are full on boy-style!! No assist!
...and way more than I had to do! Who'da thunk??? Me?? I'm essentially lazy, what's up with this? Has some weird ass switch taken place in my brain??? Invasion of the body snatchers?? There's just no telling...
