EMOM for 16 minutes alternate the following movements (8 rounds of each)

  • 2 x L-Sit Ring Muscle Ups
  • 30 second Handstand Hold

Then 3 rounds of

  • 10 x TRX Tricep Extensions
  • 5 x Tuck Front Lever

Finisher, 8 rounds of 30 seconds on / 30 seconds off

  • Row

Results: Didnt get the full 30 seconds on some of the handstand holds since I was trying to be really close to the wall and as straight as possible…kept falling away from the wall. Probably need to face the wall instead of back to the wall. Row 80 calories including the extra slop between rounds.
