“DEATH BY…”

  • Burpees

With a running clock, for the first minute do 1 Burpee and rest the remainder of the minute. When the clock hits the second minute do 2 Burpees, and continue on. You are finished when you can no longer do the allotted number of Burpees in the minute required. 

My score = 15 Minutes + 12 reps in the 16th minute = 132 Burpees 

Shauna’s score = 14 minutes + 13 reps in the 15th minute = 118 Burpees

  
Mental Workout of the Day:

Write a list of all the things that you would do if you had all the money you wanted. Now choose the 2 things you would like to see happen the soonest. Now visualize what it would be like to be doing those things. Take 3-5 minutes on each experience you would like to see manifest. Play with this, as a child plays with such things in their mind. Have fun with it, and breathe in the magic within you.
