As many rounds as you can do in 12 minutes of:
2 Med-ball shots
4 Squat thrusts (burpee without the pushup)
6 Hang power snatch (65/45)

The NY Times Health Blog discusses a recent study finding that TV commercials had a greater association with childhood obesity than the programming being watched.
The study wasn’t able to document how much food advertising children were exposed to. But research shows that young children are exposed to about 30 hours of food-related advertising annually. During Saturday cartoons, children see an average of one food ad every five minutes, most of which are for junk food, the researchers noted.
