Ricky
AMRAP in 20 minutes: Finished with 9 + 15 rounds
10 Pull-Ups
5 Dumbbell Deadlifts (75/55 lb)
8 Push-Presses (135/95 lb)
This was an interesting workout!
My blood blister from yesterday's WOD ripped off on my first set of pull-ups so I had to stop and tape myself up but all my pull-ups were unbroken, as well as the deadlifts of course.
Honestly this workout was all about those push-presses. I would use that as my rest to try to get all 8 in one set. 95# is just heavy!
After time stopped I went ahead and finished out that 10th round... because I can! :D
