Moderation

For time: as always

75 Pull Ups
75 Push Ups
75 Sit Ups

This workout was inspired by an old quote (a good one) used in a bad way by one of today's utes. "Everything in moderation." This is true, except when talking about using heavy narcotics, like heroin and crystal meth. He believed heavy narcotics like these were ok if "used in moderation." I can't make this stuff up.
