100 Burpee Box Jump Overs at 24”/20”

Beginner Level

80 Burpee Box Jumps at 20”/12”

*Facing or Lateral

Every minute on the minute, including zero you must complete 2 wall walk-ups.

*wall walk up begins with you face down on the ground with your feet against a wall, then you walk your feet up the wall until you are in a handstand facing the wall

From Heppner’s Mind: First time I did this took a little over ten minutes. Try to save your arms on the burpees.

The idea behind scaling this is to try to fry the shoulders only as much as you can handle. Each of the buy-ins should take around 20-25 seconds, especially when you’re fresh in the beginning.

From Heppner’s Mind: The goal with this 2-minute on, 4-minute off intervals is to work with very high power output and quick transitions no matter how much it hurts. Earn those four-minute breaks.

Just like in Week 1, your scaling options here should put the buy-in at about 55-60 seconds and each round of the workout at around 60 seconds. If you scale correctly, this should take no more than four 2 minute intervals.
