M 5 Burpee from the bottom... from your back :20 sec. rest/ assessment Work until the rest, demand violent position and range of motion in each rep; There should be no guessing as to the beginning and end of each movement. Period, not a comma. Kettlebell swing reminder: If we lose our strong hinge, back rounds, or legs fail to snap straight in the “drive” portion of the movement, adjust accordingly and continue safely. Do not bend arms- broad, square chest, with arms "short and straight". “Burpees from the bottom” simply begin and end with your chest on the floor. The additional fold in the drill today involves beginning and ending each rep on your back. Roll, move, and reset with dexterity and intent. No wiggling.
