For quality, every 90 seconds for 18 minutes ( 6 rounds total ) do each set (90 seconds per set):

  • Set 1 – 5 x L-Hang Pullups
  • Set 2 – 5 x Handstand Pushups

Then do AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

  • Row 320m
  • 8 x Toes to Bar
  • 16 x Overhead Reverse Lunges with 20kg Plate (8 per leg)

Results:  Rowing distance is a result of my rower only providing distances in 0.1 mile increments so 320m is 0.2 miles :-p.  For the metcon did 5 rounds plus 320m row.
