“Team Series 18.1”

Prior to starting the workout, both athletes will need to create a long straight line on the floor and place their barbells perpendicular to and on the center of their lines. The workout begins with the barbells resting on the floor and the athletes standing tall. After the call of “3, 2, 1… go!” the athletes will begin the bar-facing burpees, with both athletes’ chests touching the floor at the same time. The workout ends once the clock reaches the 7-minute mark.

Every rep counts in this workout. The team’s score will be the total number of synchronized bar-facing burpees completed before the time cap. Each synchronized burpee will count as 1 completed rep.

Scaling
All athletes can complete this workout as prescribed. Newer athletes can complete the scaled version, which allows for stepping down and up from the floor, as well as stepping instead of jumping over the barbell each rep.
