Burpee Madness

It's not the same as burpee hell.

Burpee hell is basically a billion burpees mixed in with 20 yard sprints, a lot of times in a ladder formation. It's brutal and I feel like dying throughout the entire workout, but at the end I'm totally winning at life!

Last night though was something else. Curtis called it a "shitload of burpees." I call it Burpee Madness. We did 21 rounds of burpees, 60 seconds of work/30 seconds of rest. If a regular burpee didn't already beat your a$$, try adding in some crazy flair Curtis came up with. I actually liked most of them. I had to pee the entire workout but had to see and do the next variation. I couldn't miss a whole round! What's that saying again? "Suck it up, buttercup!"

Since I'm using the tire for mine, the variations he introduced really helped me get more bang for my buck. A few examples were diagonal, T-up, single-arm/leg, frog jump, around-the-world, and my favorite slalom kick burpees. I woke up this morning feeling like I got run over by a truck.

I think I hurt my ankle doing the single-leg burpee. Just a little, not enough to fuss about it and it's probably because I didn't stretch. I don't even care though because I was doing single-leg burpees!!

BOO-YAH!
