For time:
10 x burpee broad jumps
40 x box jumps @ 24"
10 x burpee broad jumps
40 x bench supported lateral jumps (per side)
10 x burpee broad jumps
40 x over the bench jumps (40 total)
10 x burpee broad jumps
40 x jump lunges (per leg)
Time = 21:50
This is a modified version of my trainer's routine. Over the bench jumps looked too intimidating at 24", so I opted for a lower standard bench. It wasn't just the height, but also the depth of the 24" bench that put me off; it was simply too far forward for me to leap. I want to do this as RXed, so I'll have to work my way up to the full-sized bench. Other than that, I think this was pretty much as Paul did it. He beat me by 35 seconds!

Cept you are suppose to jump as far as possible on the burpee broad jumps, ur jumps were a tad comical looking, mainly because you were tired haha. Very nice work though, it was a tough one.
Ha! You noticed! I was trying to jump as far as possible, but my quads wouldn't let me. I could tell that I was tiring quickly because I would do five burpee broad jumps, then turn around to do the next five; I always landed on the last one well short of where I started.
This was the first time I'd done broad jumps and they were physically the toughest part of the routine. I can't believe how much my legs were killing me by the seventh rep each time. And I can't believe there are guys who can do this for a mile!
That workout is rediculous, it takes them over an hour and that's impressive. I did 400 metres once and wanted to die it totalled around 175 of them, it would be a mean mean workout.
