Errrr I went just a bit too fast on the rows. They felt good though. 

Handstand holds weren't as good as last week, my longest hold was :19 and I kept walking outside the mat. 

The workout was okay, I was breathing pretty hard right from the start which was annoying. I tried keeping everything at 80% but the prowler always makes me really winded regardless of how fast/slow/light/heavy it is. The single unders were awkward at first and I kept tripping but I finally found a good rhythm in the fourth round.

Really solid day. Today was the best I've felt during training in the last week. 

Front squats were good, the tempo was pretty rough at 205. 

Bench press was fine, although the two second pause at the bottom is starting to make things tough. 

I was pretty pleased with the assault bike workout, breathing was really good throughout. I tried to keep my transitions short between movements. All three farmers walks were unbroken. 

I really enjoyed the toes to bar workout! All sets of toes to bar were unbroken and felt great, huzzah! The stone is fun, I wouldn't mind if this kept popping up in my programming. I wanted to do this under ten minutes so I tried to go right from the stone to the bar and vice versa. I would consider this workout a success.
