Setting the standard is up to you. Identifying Exemplars who serve as the highest standard and focusing on their behaviors makes you better.

We did Death by with burpees, merkins, jump squats and big boys. It was awesome!

Bottom of hill 1 merkin, run to top of hill to pull up bars, 13 pull-ups. Back down for 2-11, you know the drill. If you couldn’t do a pull up then 3 second dead hang per pull up.
