“Mamba & Gigi”

18 min AMRAP:
5 Ring Muscle-Ups
8 Power Cleans (125/185)
24 Box Jumps (24/30)
13 Burpees (in place, make sure hips and knees extend, and touch hands overhead to make rep count)

The “Mamba” workout originally posted in April 2016 by Invictus, and celebrated the career of NBA legend Kobe Bryant. It was 18 minutes for his 18 consecutive All-Star game appearances, 5 ring muscle-ups for the 5 NBA championship rings he earned with the Lakers, 8 power cleans for his jersey number from 1997-2006, and 24 box jumps for his jersey number from 2006-2016. They have now added 13 burpees in honor of his 13-year-old daughter Gianna (Gigi), and join the entire world in mourning the loss of these incredible individuals, as well as the other lives lost in the tragic accident. We do this WOD today in honor of those who's lives have been cut too short.

"The important thing is that your teammates have to know you're pulling for them and you really want them to be successful." ~ Kobe Bryant
