For time:Run 1K30 handstand push-upsRow 1K Etiquette Monday. A friendly reminder to everyone – please remember not to break down your equipment until everyone has finished the workout.   At Roots, no one breaks down their equipment until everyone has finished the workout.  This is a common courtesy that you too will one day benefit from as everyone is last in the workout someday.  You can cheer on others, grab a foam roller, or just sit and enjoy the down time, but don’t touch your equipment.  On occasion, when the class timeline is tight, the coach may tell everyone who is done that they can go ahead and break it down before everyone is done.  But this is the exception.   Help other athletes by reminding them of this when you see it happen.
