Burpees and Squats

Workout 13 December 2009:

Rounds in 20 minutes of:
25 Burpees
135lb Back squat, 15 reps

Results: 3 rounds
Previous best: none

This workout was a smoker; I went in thinking I could do about four rounds but was happy to even finish three. The burpees destroyed me and were what prevented me from getting in any more rounds. The squats went pretty well and I was able to get through each round with only two sets. Yay burpees!

Scale the squat weight so that you are able to do all 15 reps quickly and in only one or two sets. This is not the time to go heavy. No cheating on the burpees- chest and hips to ground and a full jump with each rep.
