I think anything new is well worth trying. Definately go for extra ROM with the hspu as I found them recently to be a weakness when my hands are raised on plates which reflects in my shoulder press.

burpees done in 5:50ihs unbroken slow and steady.

box jumps in 15/10 and so on for 7 sets

pullups first round 10/15/15
second round 20/20

Finisher:
•For 8 Minutes alternate 1 minute of plank position, 1 minute max HSPU's
•Breaking plank before the time is up = disqualification+800m run as a forfeit

planks unbroken
HSPU 5/6/6/6

tough after all the rest. shoulders tired.

Hey Nik! Havent visisted in a while! You have stayed consistent, nice work! I see your squats are looking good - you are consistently over 300 for reps, which is awesome!:highfive:

And a 5 x 5 on deadlifts is insane!

I will be around a little more now, I think! (I am soending more time at the office...)
