Burpee-alooza

150 Burpees for time. There is no other way I can say this....this will suck. Very high metabolic impact on the body, this one. Form is king on this one, not time, but you are on the clock, so be mindful. Keep a straight back in the plank portion of the burpee, head remains up, instead of looking at the ground. Spring up from the plank, and jump in the air. This is a test of wills. Its you against this workout, and make no mistake, its a battle. Post times and comments, as always. Enjoy.

Today I did the following:

1 Squat snatch 135lbs
9 Overhead squats 135 lbs
5 Muscle ups
10 GHD situps

5 rounds for time: Time was 25:38. Did the squat snatch and then went right into the Overhead squats. This one was a good WOD. Strict Muscle ups and strict GHD situps. Squat snatches and overhead squats were A2A. (A## to ankles)

This one was definitely a BATTLE OF WILL. I knocked this out in 14:39. I was wasted after this one, especially my shoulders. My body is feeling pretty good though after these past few weeks of crossfit and the running. I'm going to weigh in tomorrow or monday to see if there's any change. Looking forward to tomorrow's WOD.

Breakfast: Banana and OJ
Lunch: Bowl of Noodles, powerade.
Dinner: Turkey burger, cajun fries, potato salad, sweet tea.
Bedtime snack, TBD but probably a russian bear shake.
