The Ghost

The Ghost can best be summed up like this:
r = 0; /* Calories burned on rower
b = 0; /* Number of burpees completed
SU = 0; /* Number of single unders completed
t = 1 minute;
FOR i := 1 TO 6 DO
 BEGIN
  r[i] = Row (t);
  b[i] = Burpees (t);
  SU[i] = Single-unders (t);
 END

Score = Sum(r[i]) + Sum(b[i]) + (1/3)*Sum(SU[i])  /* Penalty for doing SU instead of DU */

For those of you who don't read Pascal-inspired pseudocode, it's 6 rounds of the following: 1 minute of rowing for calories, 1 minute of burpees, 1 minute of double-unders (or if you're like me, single-unders but they only count for 1/3), 1 minute of rest. In other words, 23 minutes of HIIT cardio hell.
