Light weights are good, very good

So after the brutality of the burpees yesterday, Bumper decides what we need are more squats. Wonderful.

Of course, these are overhead squats which means we get to hold the bar above our head as we go up and down. Even more wonderful. Throw in some pull-ups and it's a happy day.

Wait, did I say what our reps were? 21, 15 and 9. Yeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaawwwww.

I didn't mess around or act macho today, not with this workout. I threw 10's on each side of the bar and that was it. To hell with that.

Everybody else went heavier. Lori, Kehau, Oran and Luke. Once again, I did not care. I was just looking to survive the workout. Ever do 21 pullups? Unassisted pullups by the way, no rubber bands to help.

Tomorrow is our last day for Crossfit this week until after Christmas. For my gift I would like to choose my own workout. Please I'd like to do four rounds of:

10 handstand pushups, 5 L pull-ups, 10 pushups and a 400 meter run.

See? No squats whatsoever. Thank you Santa.
