Aside from that, only 1 person may work at a time, and at all times someone needs to be holding a plate, 45/25, over their head. If the plate touches the ground it is a 25 burpee penalty for the team. If the plate comes down from overhead but doesn’t touch the ground it must be handed off to a partner and you must stop working until the plate is back overhead.
