A spicy movement with a new name
We’re hitting a cuplet today of pull ups and “bag burpees”. While the later is probably something you’ve never heard of before, if you’ve ever done a devil’s press, this will be quite similar.
Keep looking for ways to get creative to get as much as you can out of these at home WODs. A load is a load, so find a weight that you’ll notice and get to it!

Just got an erg to play with, so did my own: Nautical Helen-ish (row 500, 21 kb, 8 strict pull ups) 13:04. Feels like a good benchmark to try again next week…
