Pullups, T2B, Pushups and Thrusters then Situps

Based on the Crossfit Invictus Baseline Interval Test from August 5, 2019

Then not for time

Results:  Used Sandbag Thrusters instead of Wallballs. 2:48-3:51-4:37-skipped-4:42-skipped.  Don’t know if I am looking forward to the retest.  Getting the final Thrusters in within the 5 minutes so that you have time to rest is a major push at the end.
