      EVEN minutes - Goblet Squat - 15 reps
      ODD minutes - Pullups

      For the pullups, you pick the number for the first set.
      If you pick 8 reps for the first minute, for example, you
      would do 9 reps the next odd minute, and continue adding
      one rep every odd minute.  You are done when you either
      fail to get the required number of reps for that minute, or 
      you complete 8 sets of pullups.  So if you started with 8 reps,
      your last set/last minute would be 15 reps.  Try to pick a 
      starting number that will allow you to get through at least
      5 sets, and hopefully all 8.  Sets do not have to be unbroken.
      You can get on and off the pullup bar as many times as you
      like each odd minute.
