Relativity …

“When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute—and it’s longer than any hour. That’s relativity.”
 - Albert Einstein

Burpee (chest & thighs to the floor)
V-Up

eg,

1 thruster in the 1st minute

Rugby vs Soccer …

“Rugby is a hooligan’s game played by gentlemen. Soccer, a gentlemen’s game played by hooligans.”

Security …

“Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.”
  - Helen Keller
