who created Burpees?
December 2, 2008
"That was like a painstorm", was what Lenora had to say after the WOD, "yes for you it was Lenora, for everyone else just a really hard workout." Burpees are hard, pullups are hard, put them together and it's just pain.
The pullup challenge is going great! We have many people alread in the 300 range. Great job today focusing on the kip and range of motion. The goal is by the end of December to have as many people hitting their first "real" pullup as possible and judging by the results so far it is going to be a huge success!
Everyone had beautiful burpees tonight! The guys really stepped up tonight with Toph, Dr. Josh, Marine Mike, and Victor tearing through all 10 rounds.
We covered kipping in the gymnastics skills class and had two people nail their first kipping pullup and so many others come so close. The lightbulb finally went off over Josh's head and he finally understood the kipping pullup, his times are going to see some serious improvements. Andrea R. caught on quickly, this girl is awesome, she is going to be a firebreather! Andrea "Red" is so close to getting that first pullup. We know the frustration, but all that hard work will pay off, promise!
Don't forget our 9am class is now being offered everyday…get some!
