KBs and Backward Burpees (or something like that)
All All MECA BackblastsMay 6th, 2016
Rain was falling when YHC pulled into Stallings Rd. Park to Q Harrisburg Iron. It was the kind of morning for a KB Iron workout under the picnic shelter. YHC wanted to keep the heart rate going with a mix of KB routines, burpees presses, and backwards burpees (which ended up just being regular burpee after the first one) #betterNotOverthinkKBworkouts! Five mighty men arrived for the beatdown, here’s how it went:

It was an honor to lead! Always inspired by the #hardwork and #strongEffort.
Great workout today @Helga. The pace was fast and kept the heart rate up.
Remember that one time when @clueless had to walk off because he was so tired he couldnt breathe? Me neither …
