BARBARA 5 rounds of 20 pull ups, 30 push ups, 40 sit ups, 50 squats. (rest 3min. between rounds)

... our warm up (lol, what a warm up) today had 33 tire flips for time,gentlemen were on their own while our lady's teamed up for their flips. Great effort robelle, and Nicole . I think Barbara is quickly becoming a crowd pleaser at Atlas....With Barbara, the PUKE factor is a bit of a creeper, waiting in the shadows till that 3rd round to creep around, and the realization of you still have 2 more rounds to go. A great mental challenge wod. Great job to all who got a p.r. on Barbara today! Stretch well tonight and get ready for tomorow!
