Results:  For the Sandbag Thrusters included a toss at the top so it was more like a Wallball.  The standard I used was that the sandbag must completely leave my hand at the top of the thruster. For the metcon completed 140-140-115 reps per round for a total of 395 reps.  For the EMOM did 3 rounds of knee tucks then 2 rounds of pike presses.
