So, in our endless quest to find equipment to challenge the athletes at our gym, we have finally found “The Skipper.” It is recommended for 8-12 yr olds, but it rocks for all ages! “Rhythm”, should that be the 11th componant of fitness?
Workout
On the 1st 3-minute interval,
complete 3 rounds of:
3 Power Snatch
6 Pushups
9 Box Jumps 24″/20″
One the 2nd 3-minute interval,
complete (1) 40-yd sprint for time
Complete 5 rounds. Record the (5) 40-yd sprint times for lowest time possible. Advanced users, use 115lb. power snatch. Intermediate and beginners use 95lb. and 75lb., respectively.
Post 40-yd sprint times to beyondthewhiteboard

To make The Skipper “Crossfit-worthy” you’re going to have to put a 15 lb mace ball (steel ball with spikes) on the end of it! We’re not paying for a workout that doesn’t make us cry and bleed!
Pat, you look like you are having so much fun with that. Forget double unders, I can see the next Annie involving the skipper with Hanna Montana playing in the background. Hopefully I’ll already be in Georgia when that happens
Look at that POSE form, up on the balls of your feet – good job Pat!
Didn’t I buy that for the kids????
