Dog-Dodging Sprints & 100 Burpee Challenge

It’s like that YouTube video that came out awhile back, where someone said the best way for a white woman to train is pretend a black man is chasing you. Sub black man for white dog and you have my sprints today at the Playground portion of Nature’s Garage Gym. Sprints: 10 x 40M (across…
