"We don't have the agility of gymnasts, the power of a weightlifter, or the endurance of a marathoner but we have more agility, power, and endurance than any gymnast, weightlifter or marathoner. We do your stuff almost as good as you, you can’t do our stuff at all and we do stuff neither of us does way better than you can." -Greg Glassman, aka "Coach"

Part A. Three rounds for time of: (7 minute cap)

30 Push-ups, release hands from floor at the bottom

Releasing hands at the bottom of push-ups were no joke.. made them A LOT tougher!!
OHS are a goat... Shoulder flexibility has improved and the lift is getting better but I still need to get deeper


Rest 30 seconds.

30 Toes to bar
95 pound Ground to overhead, 21 reps

As Rx'd: 1 round + 13 TTB

T2B bogged me way down 5-7 at a time... grip was shot

Finished last 8 OHS and 17 TTB after 7min cap
