Against two minute running clocks perform 5 rounds of:

  • 5 x Bench Press @ 72kg
  • 10 x Reverse Rows

Then for time perform the following:

  • 5 x Sumo Deadlift Highpull @ 43kg
  • 15 x Dynamic Pushup
  • 45 x Double Unders

Result:  For the Metcon part –  Time 13:35 / HR max=171, ave=160.  For the dynamic pushup I used a pair of small parallelets (sp?) I have to elevate one hand, then just alternated each side up and down for 15 reps.  The Metcon worked out very well for a WOD I just made up since I could not complete the last set of pushups without a break.
