The crew at SicFit posted this video with some feedback from workout 11.4 of the 2011 CrossFit Games Open.
Obviously 2 full rounds isn’t possible! I didn’t even get one….. 🙂
In all seriousness, though… I would love to see video of someone moving as fast as he mentions in the video through all of those reps. That would be INSANE.

Obviously the jumping over the bar part is what is messing them up. 2 seconds per burpee is impossible when you factor that in.
You could time yourself doing 20 burpees as fast as you can, calculate the time per burpee, then add 20-25% to figure out a solid and somewhat realistic pace.
Here’s the thing, Joe… throughout the first few weeks of the CrossFit Games Open, there have been more than a few “suspect” score/results submitted.
That has lead to a pretty strong sense of disbelief among many CrossFitters.
Physically, many people think that 2 rounds in this workout is approaching the limits of human capacity! However, if someone out there CAN do it… we just want to see it and be in awe!
