16.1 was announced last night, and the first thing that went through my mind; how many people per heat?

My first thought wasn’t the fact that it contained a new movement, Overhead Lunges, or that it contained burpees.  Burpees are essential to life.  How do you get up if you get knocked down?

Anyway, this post isn’t here to coddle or hold your hand.  If you’re doing scaled, here is a true CrossFit workout.  No high skill movement; just grind.  20 minutes is enough to send anyone into a panic attack, but just breathe and keep moving.  If Lunges and Burpees are scaring you, then we have found a weakness we need to work on.

Welcome to week 1 of TESTING your fitness.  Funny the word testing.  Testing is never easy, thats why its a TEST!

P.S Please be patient with us as we figure out heats and how things will work.  Just show up ready to sweat, high five and throw down.  Remember Team Spirit.  At the end of the day its just a workout and you’ll survive.  When its over you’ll start freaking out about 16.2!
