Hell yeah.

Unfortunately for him, the camera in the squad didn't either....

They'd have a difficult time proving what was actually in the bag though...

Am doing 2 workouts today - morning one was 5 rounds 100 skips 7 Burpees 10 push ups 20 squats I almost managed a full round of skips without f**king up (got to 85).

Didn't do my 6 burpees today. I did 150. I decided to give 'Death by burpees' a go - 20 1 minute rounds. First round you do 1 burpee, 2nd round 2 etc. Starts to get very hard around 12-13 when the time spent doing burpees becomes more than the rest time. I got to round 14 but only managed 14 in the ...

It's not really the full move though unless you let your weight hang and then start again. It's the slightly more refined cousin of the kip. Take the tension out of your core and shoulders, at a minimum - you're still hanging on with your hands and forearms. I will admit, I'm not one the 'heavier c...

My understanding of burpees was that you don't have to do a push up in them. I go completely to ground when doing them, too - chest and crotch to ground.

Warmed up with a BB Complex (20kg) 3 reps of Backsquat, Behind Head push press, Overhead squat, Bent over Row, Romanian Deadlift. Repeat x3 And 4 Burpees. Backsquat - 5x60, 5x80, 5x85, 5x90, 5x95 Then 15 minutes AMRAP 8 x Deadlift 70kg 15 x Situps 15 x Box Jumps (24 inch box). Managed 10 rounds and ...

BTW, I also dont think you can say that it will be a 28 year record as its only ever played every four years. It will be a record for 7 consecutive RWC's. I'm fairly sure we were reminded on a daily basis how many years in total it had been since our last WC win. :lol: ahem, ahem, ah-fcukking-hem. ...

It's actually "I bless the rains down in Africa".

Did a more traditional 'cardio' type workout today. Started off with 5x5 pullups then 45 mins on the elliptical. But did it in 'rounds' - first 5 times 1 minute@ 75% of maximum effort* then 1 minute@50%, then 5 times 1:30 @ 75% with 1 minute rest and finally 5 times 2 mins @75%, 1 min @50%. 5 minute...

Other than 2007, I don't there's any decent argument that this is true.

KB swing (16) x100.

Nice - in one go, or did you have to take a break?

Some more of his.
