WOD: “Tumilson” (Hero)

This is eight rounds, so be sure to track each round. We like to use sidewalk chalk or rocks, but you don’t want to forget a round here! This is one where pacing yourself can come in handy. Dumbbell deadlift burpees are a less common move, and are fun. Control your breathing and take them one at a time.
