AMRAP 12

11 x Burpee thrusters (75 lbs.)
20 x double unders
11 x Wall-ball shots (20 lbs.)

Notice a theme?

Here is a video of burpee power snatches (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST1MkSJHAOQ), the same general concept applies to the burpee thruster, but I couldn't find a video of the exercise.  Bottomline, do a push-up on the barbell, then execute a standard thruster, that's one burpee thruster.

    3 rounds + 11 burpee-thrusters.

    That was a smoker. DUs were unbroken, b-t broke me off after Round 1.

    Great effort by the morning crew.

    Those burpee thrusters were different. I went back and forth on my technique: some I did by curling the bar up into a front rack and then doing a full thruster; others I did a full clean straight into a thruster. The squat cleans felt faster, but they also seemed to fatigue me a lot faster.

    4 rds + 7 burpee thrusters, using 85 lbs (10 lb bumper plates bend too easilly).

    What a joy that was.
