"Roadhouse"

In Memory of Patrick Wayne Swayze: 1952 - 2009

WOD - "Elite:"

3-RFT.

400m Run
15-12-9 of:
Power Cleans (155-lbs.)
L-Sit Pullups
"Lou" Burpees (2x Pushup)

Time: 22:55

Holy Smokes - what else can I say? Jerry sure knows how to cook up a brutal WOD doesn't he?

This one just straight up floored me not because of the heavier than normal cleans, not because of the L-Sits & my subsequent achy elbows, not even because of the runs... it was those FREAKING "Lou" Burpees. For those of you not in the know Lou is a member of CFOT who by some happenstance didn't quite understand the concept of the burpee when they were introduced. He was doing two pushups within each burpee!

Lou...? God bless you and I know it was a long time ago but let's just pay attention when we're learning a movement as to not set this kind of precedent anymore okay?
