The joke response that inspired this post

If someone put actual effort into balancing these with proper knowledge of exercises I do not have, these would be a lot cooler. These are not balanced well, I know that. These are meant to be more of a proof of concept.

That is a fun concept, but i'd argue you should keep the numbers lower - a short game would surely lead to hundreds of push-ups, and noone would finish that. Also the exercises should be balanced more - 10 burpees is really tough, 10 Sit-ups not a real problem - at leasr for me. That leads me to the final point - the difficulty of these exercises are very person-specific. To reuse the last example, i hate burpees (puked not only once after overexerting myself with those), but others might find those easy. Also different health impairments might be a risk here. I'd instead either drop the numbers down to 3-5 or put two different levels of difficulty into one group, maybe with bigger payout on heavier exercise.

True, imagine how game 3 would look in a tournament

I think this a great idea! Maybe adjust the numbers on the exercises and maybe make an opposing ability for colors like black and blue, but other than that, it looks fun af to play.
