Burpee Variants...






















-News-


Down at Victoria Park tonight and will get underway at 6:30pm the same as last week, got a rather nasty variant on the normal burpee tonight, I get the feeling people might not be so hateful towards regular burpees after this evening... See everyone down at the park.

-update-
I think I am right in thinking that everyone found the burpee thrusters (a pushup on a 30kg bar, then a squat clean into a thruster) one of the most horrible exercises known to man. I heard a few people cursing Chris for having a birthday and inspiring such a horrible workout...

"The Chris"

3 rounds for time of

15 burpee thrusters (30/20kg)
15 HSPU
15 squats

Sorry I cannot make it tonight. Very sore from yesterday, great workout. Am curious about your burpee variant - after the workout, would enjoy some photos/description/video. Hope to join again during my next trip to Adelaide, whenever that is. scott
