Wax Off

Burpees, We don’t do those here!

It is true you learn something new everyday, today I learned that @Gumpis developing a Q rating system, there is only one way to truly do a Ground Pounder, apparently only @Motor Boatin’ is allowed to call Low Slow Flutter in the Mary, and that this AO is extremely allergic to Burpees!

However, if you’ve been to one of my Q’s, you know the drill.  Late attendance must pay the burpee penalty, so the group determined that I was starting out in the negative numbers on my Q rating performance, haha.

FNGs:

None

Warm Up:

Standard Warmup: SSH, SFAC, GM

The Workout:

Headed to the Rock pile, where most of us grabbed a smedium sized rock and hit a 5 station x 3 round circuit.
