WOD: 100 Inverted Burpees
Time = 12:10
First time for me on this work out….or any work out involving handstands. I had some fears about the handstands because I fell on my head when I last tried them. That was over a year ago & I’ve never had the courage to try them again. A big thanks to Patrick to helping me out this morning. Once I overcame my fear, they really weren’t that bad. I agree with Lora, in that they were easier for me that regular burpees.
Wow, great job Heidi!
yey for overcoming fears!
Well done Heidi! YAY for not falling on your head! LOL
Great job Heidi!

Front Squat x 3
60,70,80,90,100.
Did a fair bit of shoulder and forearm stretching in addition to some wrist mobility before this one. I am not sure if it looked better when I racked the weight, but it sure did feel better. I should be able to start pushing some more challenging weight on front rack lifts very soon.
WOD, scaled to regular burpees after what can only be described as a complete handstand fail during practice.
