  • I am the burpee queen

    You would think that burpees wouldn’t be as hard as they are. Why are they so hard – can someone tell me that? My friend, Ms Connie called me the burpee queen today, which surprised me because I was cursing with each burpee broad jump I did. WOD: warmup: 2 min jump ropes core x2…

  • Feelin Hot Hot Hot

    It was a hot one today. Man oh man – when I started to lose focus on my workout, I was feeling my workout bottoms sticking to my legs. Yuck.  But I did finish the workout in 30:19 which is :19 seconds longer than I should have which pissed me off a bit. I find…
