Marguerita
No, not the drink!
“Marguerita” is a CrossFit “Girl WOD” unlike any other that we’ve done inside (or outside) the walls of CFSV…. because it’s 50 rounds.
But with only 5 reps in each round, you’ll be flying through the rounds. Each round consists of 1 burpee, 1 push-up, 1 jumping jack, 1 sit-up, then 1 handstand. Try to minimize transition times between movements; can you find your own sort of “flow state” here?
No weights or objects needed today, but do grab yourself a piece of paper for counting purposes — perhaps tallying off every 5 rounds. You’ll likely be working for somewhere in the domain of 16-25 minutes.
Here are a few handstand options/ideas:
- Free-standing handstand (looking at you, Erica M.!)
- Kick-up-to-wall handstand
- Wall walk
- Headstand
- Overhead press w/ dumbbells or a heavy object
Warm-up:
3 rounds
20 pike toe-touches (alt arm)
40 seconds of high knees or butt kickers
10 pass-throughs with a broomstick/belt/cane
“Marguerita”
50 rounds for time:

I’d need a more efficient space to be quicker, and I really appreciated the inefficency. I did hold some handstands without the wall. By the way, push up + jumping jack = burpee. I was not fooled.
27:50
I have no idea how this could be done at 16 mins …
I did headstands.
HAHAHA “push up + jumping jack = burpee. I was not fooled”. I KNEW something felt familiar here 😉
I did push ups to a 16″ bench and subbed in a kettlebell press for the handstand because we temporarily have no free wall space in our apartment due to my quarantine induced reorganization project.

Not my favorite kind of marguerita but it’ll do
Hahaha! I agree with Paul: those were 2 burpees!
22.00 Even I was close to the wall -because I am afraid of falling- almost all my handstands were free, yay! Bring the Margueritas to celebrate!
31:00. After a few rounds I traded handstands for overhead press, because I wanted to finish before the quarantine ends.
14:36.
Should have held the kick up to wall handstands longer but this was still a fun one.
Loving the inverted WODs
23:52 w/ kick ups. I hit a few different motivation walls in this one. Oof!
Paul, Sarah, Heather, Bere, Jack O, Jack H., Dan S —
Super proud of you all for tackling this workout. Really cool to see your creativity, especially with the handstands.
I totally agree. Push-up + jumping jack = burpee 😛
