Not unlike the Barbara we know and love, this CrossFit benchmark packs a fierce punch due to her speed, and the sheer volume of reps we have to contend with. Originally written as a 1:1 work rest ratio, Barbara differs from the other bodyweight workouts in that the 3 minute rest periods allow sufficient recovery to attack the subsequent rounds with real fury. This wod is immense and the benefits will accrue almost immediately. Barbara. Disrepect her at your peril.
