I saw this and thought of the Tribe and Dr. Curtis. The woman featured in this video is a medical school student and a Crossfit Games competitor. For those of you who don’t know, the Crossfit workout program has an annual competition where they crown “The Fittest on Earth” and have made the Sport of Fitness a professional/competitive event. The dedication, courage, and fitness prowess exhibited is extraordinary. It’s amazing to see how a woman can be in medical school and maintain an elite level of fitness! Hmmm, maybe there is something to these high-intensity, low volume workout programs….Enjoy the weekend and find a way to do a short, intense workout!

I’ve done a similar workout. Tough stuff. Especially the burpees. Don’t let the tiny weight on the bar fake you out. That workout burns! For those looking for a challenge or competition, I like the virtual nature of the session.
