Today I tried doing this with chest to bar pull-ups. The pull-ups themselves weren’t that bad, and I could have done more, but I kept stopping to check the time, and in doing so, lost the opportunity for reps. Oh well – better next time!
Pull-ups: 7-4-4-4-4-4-3-3 (33) [about half my normal amount of reps]
Push-ups: 16-11-7-7-6-6-6-6 (65)
Sit-ups: 17-17-16-15-15-15-14-15 (124)
Squats: 22-21-19-17-17-17-16-16 (145)
TOTAL = 367 PR (by 9 points)
Even though my pull-up numbers were drastically reduced by doing CTB, all my other movements went way up! +6 for push-ups, +19 for sit-ups and +11 for squats

Yes, that is a zero in one of those pull-up rounds. I’ve recently graduated from 2 tinies to 1 tiny and it’s not easy.
Still having major trouble with pull-ups. (Allison – I can relate!) Even so, still achieved a whopping PR!!

Tried open grip on pull-ups which seemed to help a little but still need work.
50 pullups (not chest to bar, though)
74 pushups
102 situps (abmat, anchored)
112 squats
338 total
49 pull ups

I think I could probably be faster on the sit ups and squats next time.
