*Inspired by www.navyseals.com. Had to slog through this one. The biggest enemy was the heat. Had to fight tooth and nail not to get heat stroke and pass out. I can't even fathom doing this one as recommended. 20# vest and 70 lbs for the farmer's walks?? What!? On a good note I'm up to two reps in a row on ring HSPUs. So that's good.

Alright. Let me explain about this one a little bit. First of all I thought I was going to be a super-duper bad ass and do RING handstand pushups instead of regular handstand pushups today........no. It took me about 15 minutes just to work up the nuts to learn how to swing up into a handstand on rings. When I finally learned I figured I'd pump out a quick 5 to get the hang of it. 1.5 reps later I was face down in the grass at muscle failure. If you think you're a beast, you're not. Not until you've swung upside down onto some rings and learned how to knock out consecutive reps of HSPUs. It's humbling. So regular ol' handstands it was. The atlas stone wall ball was also quite interesting. In my mind, before I started, I pictured myself catching it on the way down like a regular wall ball. Halfway through the first toss it was clear that wasn't going to happen. So really it ended up being more of an atlas stone clean to squat to toss, let it fall, repeat. It was pretty tough. All in all a devastating workout. I think I added much more of a strength component than the original workout intended and took away some of the metabolic load, but it was still a crusher.

Inspired by navyseals.com WOD. The second mile was almost impossible. My legs felt like concrete blocks. This was a bona fide ball smoker!
