It’s been proven, burpee execution speeds are proportional to height.
Mine, April’s, Aaron’s and Jo D’s 5 burpee race this morning resulted in Aaron 1st, April 2nd, Jo D 3rd and lanky ol’ me… last. And would ya look at that, in order of height! Aaron finished twice as fast as me and he, too, is twice as short!
Next time B we will do squats into a vertical jump to a bar the same height off the ground for all of us!!!! If Aaron in his awesomeness finishes anywhere other than last we will work on some ways to shrink you!!!
This sounds like a fair experiment. We’ll worry bout the means of shrinkage when (IF) we get there, but I’m up for anything. Whatever it takes to be an awesome(r) CrossFitter!

Posted at 09:57h, 13 AugustNot sure if height is the sole deciding factor … cause I’m about the same height as Aaron and I might still be going at those five…
