Thank goodness I held off on doing my burpees first thing in the morning.

Pat i’m curious on the different dynamic of doing pull ups throughout the workout vs. in one shot at the end of the workout as i did today. Witch do you think would be more challenging. In the name of science someone could try it both ways and see if there is a difference.

If you are suggesting I do it twice, I may take you up on that challenge.
But to address the question, I believe doing the pull-ups at the end would result in a greater challenge, although I believe the times would remain pretty similar.

i didn’t want to come out and ask you to do it twice but you picked up on the hint

I certainly was not doing this one twice, but that was going to be my suggestion for finding out the answer to DP’s question.
Hang clean thrusters were a different twist.
Way to start off the week!
Who is running on Sat?

DP- I did it twice, but only because the first time I did it, the watch on my wrist stopped at 2:03. I have no idea how fast or slow it took.
The second attempt was as it is posted, because I really wanted to see how fast I could do it.
35 pull-ups in increments of 7 reps is much easier than having to do 35 straight, but I still think a good kipper would post similar times in either case.

Pat, I found a saying I thought you would appreciate coming from me, the “old lady”:
“A person is not old until regrets take the place of dreams.” So I am living by this one. I am so dreaming I am going to be able to jump that box, i tried stairs when I cam home because I am annoyed with myself.

once you stop dreamin’…
it’s time to die

Yes Deb is in for the 5K because that was the deal with me participating in this burpee challenge!
SvW – can we use your camera again? Bring it with you (as I know you are going to be there).

if it hadn’t rained almost every single day, I might have trained better…
I hope it’s nice for the race!!

3 Rounds
30 Deadlifts 35#
30 Box Step Ups
