Every 2 minutes on the 2 minutes x 7 rounds:
1 shoulder press
*add weight each round
Then, 3 rounds for max reps:
0:30 handstand hold followed immediately by max rep set of handstand push-ups
Rest 2 minutes
Attempt at new PR (175) on 6th round. I felt as thought there may have been a slight dip, so I asked Matt C. to watch for any movement in my knees for the next attempt. Hit 175 fairly easily here. This is a new PR for me!!
5-5-3 reps of handstand pushups.
Finished with 50 Evil Wheels.

40 V-Ups

1: This was an agressive rest interval -- so I rested as needed between sets, usually sub-2:00, so that I could get all reps UB.
2: 225-225-245-255-255lbs
3: This was tougher than I thought after starting with the evil wheels; v-ups and sit-ups were in sets of 10 rather than bigger chunks I thought I could manage.

For Time:
10-1 hang cleans + push jerks (95)
Notes: Complete 10 HC then 10 PJ, then drop the bar -- that is set one. Rest as little as needed to pick the bar up again and complete 9 of each without dropping the bar. That is set two. The goal is to keep hold of the barbell throughout the cleans and push jerks, dropping only between sets. Not only will this tax your forearms and shoulders, your lungs will be burning from all that time under tension.
9:33
I was never in danger of missing a set at 95lbs -- next time should scale up to 115lbs.

KB Swings (1.5/1)
Sit-ups
18:11
Notes: Select a load for the kettlebell that allows you to complete at least 35 consecutive swings. For the sit-ups, use sandbell to anchor the feet. The sit-ups are where I need to become more efficient. I struggle to string big sets together. Goal was to complete KB work in 2 sets or less for each round.

Notes: All lifts were taken from the rack. Final set of thrusters had an extra 10lb plate on the right side, making the bar seem unbalanced. Wanted to attempt 185, when I removed the extra plate, I failed the clean attempt to get the bar racked again.

21-15-9-15-21 reps of:
Calories, Row
HSPU
Overhead Squats, 65#
Notes: I wanted to try and do each set unbroken. This means managing rest between movements, completing a big set and taking a controlled walk to the next station. Take a big breath and get mind right and begin next exercise. The initial set of 21 was broken 12/9 for both the handstands and overhead squats. The final set of handstands were broken 12/9 -- all other work was done unbroken,
