            d666 or bags - what's the definition of "burpees" or "vurp"? wasn't able to track those words 🙂

              Burpees are an exercise-

              Vurp i'm guessing is Jeff's way of saying vomit+burp at the same time. Like throwing up in your mouth kinda feeling

                    if a plain round kettle bell doesn't do it for you, how about one that looks like an angry chimp

                              Didn't realize the chimp kettlebell is from an Austin based company.

                              Hmmmmm, road trip?
