Burpees! Thurs, Feb 22

The CrossFit Games kick off today with a 7 minute AMRAP of burpees!

Everyone in the box gets to get in on the fun.  We have a visiting competitor joining us at 9:00 and he will go head to head with Andrea!  If you can do the 8:00 workout then plan to hang around and support the athletes.

The Standards:

This workout begins from the standing position, then the athlete will move from flat on the ground to touching an object with both hands that is 6 inches above their max reach.

At the top of the burpee both hands must make contact with the target.
At the bottom position the athlete’s chest and hips must touch the ground.

The height of the target must be no less than 6 inches above the athlete’s fingertips when they are standing feet together with a straight line through their wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip and knees. The athlete should be shrugging their shoulders and reaching as high as possible while the measurement is being made.
