In today's workout we're imagining a scenario where you have to keep a precious object "high and dry." In this case, our precious object is a bucket filled with sand and we're imagining we're in water up to our chins. We've got to keep the bucket overhead for the entire workout. You can hold it with one hand, two hands, rest it on your head, or however else you can problem solve the situation. BUT, if you let your bucket get too low, or have to set it down - the penalty is 5 burpees. For the 2nd offense, the penalty is 10 burpees. 3rd offense is 15 burpees, etc!


They look so harmless just sitting there.

Today's Workout:
"High and Dry"
3 rounds:
400m run with sand bucket overhead
40 walking lunges with sand bucket overhead

See directions above regarding how to hold the bucket and the penalty for setting it down.

So exactly how heavy _is_ a bucket of sand?

And btw, they really don't look harmless at all...

Most of us filled our buckets with 15# - 25# of sand. Trust me, it wasn't harmless. And, the ironic thing was - it was drizzling during class - as we tried to keep our precious cargo "high and dry." HA!!
