Completely Exhausted

It seemed simple. A handful of full-body exercises. It seemed like it would be almost nothing. Somehow, the combination of these exercises wiped us out completely. After the third circuit we were breathless, light-headed, and nauseous. Exactly what one shoots for, but wholly unexpected.

We worked through each circuit with minimal rest between exercises, and about two minutes between every circuit.

I think the limited breaks and continual full-body exercises are what made this so effective in wearing us out.  After we finished, we were almost unable to move - completely exhausted. We sat there for a while until we were able to straighten up and stagger out.
