Take 15 to 20 minutes to work on L-Sit progressions and Handstand Walks.

Then 3 rounds, resting as needed between rounds.

  • 5 x Bench Press @ 175lbs

Then for time, scaled Diane

  • 21-15-9 x Deadlift @ 185lbs
  • 15-12-9 x Handstand Pushups

Results: Handstand Walks suddenly seem to be working out really well. Was able to walk 4 x 2-3m consistently. Need to work on my leg positioning now to bring them closer together.

Bench Press as prescribed. Metcon 8:58.
