Partnered up for the next group of circuits - each partner does both, then you move on to the next:
partner 1 - suicides in the parking lot, partner 2 - single arm plank rows w/ kettlebell (as many as you can)
partner 1 - suicides, partner 2 - jump lunges (as many as you can while your partner runs)
partner 1 - suicides, partner 2 - halos (kettlebell circles around your head/shoulders)
REPEAT

finish where we started, with the following:
super set - kettlebell shoulder raises (x10 in cadence), shoulder press (x10 in cadence), tricep extension (x10 in cadence)
Freddie mercury's slow x10 / fast x10 / slow x10 / fast x10
