Ever since the burpee challenge started I've been looking for a way to make burpees more difficult...and here it is. Bring it on!

Is the goal to jump onto the box coming up from your burpee? If yes, my goal is to not hit my head on the box while doing burpees. This should be interesting.

oh, didn't think of that alison! hmmm... maybe we need helmets for this one? i agree - definitely interesting... possibly fun. i mean, it reads like it could be fun...
Posted by: jackie | March 12, 2010 at 10:14 AM
uh...it will be "fun" for like 1 round!
Posted by: cori | March 12, 2010 at 10:15 AM
wow....this is going to be interesting. I'm worried about the burpee box jump thing too. hopefully I can find a demonstration out there......

if you've ever done weighted lunges, then box jumps, you are well aware that jumping any height AT ALL becomes extremely difficult. too bad i didn't bring pants tonight. a lot of busted shins on this one!

cori, if you russell me tonight ... well, i can't think of a fill-in good enough right now, but just remember the blank hasn't been filled and it could be REALLY bad!

Blerg. Tried a burpee file-cabinet jump (~14" high) at work... I think I *will* bring a helmet. Today's finer things selection is a fine Pinot Noir from California.

paleo peeps: just saw this!
"Cashews are not nuts, they another type of legume or bean like a peanut. They have all kinds of toxins in them."
anyone know anything about this!? that means cashew cookie lara bars are out! what a travesty!!!!!
Posted by: cori | March 12, 2010 at 11:36 AM
Say it ain't so, Cori. :* (
Posted by: Sri | March 12, 2010 at 11:45 AM
Somehow I understood they were not exactly nuts but not as bad as peanuts either...my completely uneducated opinion.

I think they're seeds.
Posted by: Donna | March 12, 2010 at 11:50 AM
it's not true. cordain allows it - and that's what i go by... they are seeds. so many people have different views on what is/isn't paleo. it's a judgement call - i'm going by the book. cashews stay!
Posted by: jackie | March 12, 2010 at 11:52 AM
Wikipedia says it's a seed. Crisis averted.
Posted by: Sri | March 12, 2010 at 11:57 AM
and we thought burpee box jumps were the hardest thing we'd have to face today! :)

cashew counseling will be available tonight after the wod. only one person can share at a time...you must be holding the medicine ball to speak. you will all get a chance to let it out.
Posted by: cori | March 12, 2010 at 12:00 PM
how 'bout we make cori stand up against a wall while we all try and hit her with medicine balls for causing such a panic! ;)
Posted by: jackie | March 12, 2010 at 12:02 PM
Looking forward to this one and the following froth.
Posted by: Carter | March 12, 2010 at 12:05 PM
that's a bunch of RECRAP i say!
Posted by: cori | March 12, 2010 at 12:15 PM
good idea jackie! causing such a stir on a Friday afternoon. goodness.
Sri.....sounds like you brought out the fine stuff! I hope we aren't out of cups to drink our finer things in. if anyone is heading to a grocery b/f CF, will you pick up the fine china wine cups?
