Rest 2 minutes then do Couplet 3:
Results: Needed a heavier Bench Press but otherwise worked pretty well.
For time complete 5 rounds of the following within a 16 minute time cap:
Results: 23:02. Forgot about the cap and kept going. Was worth it since it is a really good workout.
EMOM perform 6 rounds of the following sets (one round is all three sets for a total of 18 sets/18 minutes).
First minute (4th minute, 7th minute, etc.) –
Second minute (5th minute, 8th minute, etc.) –
Third minute (6th minute, 9th minute, etc.) –
Repeat for the 6 rounds…
Results: Made this one up on my own and it seems like it worked really well. Got the last pushup in the last round with 3 seconds to go, had to even breakup the handstand pushups. Be careful and try and use more core with the burpees and less arm or your pushups will be really hard. Right combination of keeping good controlled form since you have a whole minute, but also a good metcon because the volumes are high enough to get the blood pumping.
The Rx WOD was AMRAP in 8 minutes of:
The Rx Weight was 185 lbs, but since my 1RM is 68kg (155lbs) chose to use 115lbs (53kg).

Results: 68 reps total (12/12, 12/10, 12/10). First mile run in 7:14 (4:25 per km). Second mile run in 7:47 (4:42 per km).
