AMRAP in 20:00
10 wall balls
10 box jumps (20")
10 deadlifts (145#)
10 burpees

7 burpees short of 6 rounds


Last day of testing. I really did not enjoy this one, long metcons are my weakest area. Anything over 10:00 feels too long. I started breathing heavy basically right away, I felt like I was constantly moving and not taking too many breaks but I know my box jumps and burpees could have been faster. After the first two rounds I started breaking up the wall balls 5 and 5, and I was probably resting too long. After the 3rd round I broke up the deadlifts 7 and 3, which I don't know why I did because 145 is not that much, but my legs felt toasted. I think my transitions between movements were pretty good but overall still too much resting. I am looking forward to improving this, it's the area that needs the most work. I need to be able to get through a 20:00 metcon without being winded after the first two minutes, especially if a long metcon comes up in the Open. I am excited to start my individual programming!
