Monday Funday

Have a long week ahead, and since I missed yesterday, I decided to move things up a day:

Buy in:

3x
Go through as many times as you see fit
1:00 happy baby
1:00 lacrosse ball in traps
1:00 pigeon pose
1:00 cobra pose
1:00 lacrosse ball in chest (the easiest way I've found to do this is by standing and using a wall)

Strength: emom for 6 minutes
2 shoulder presses 90#

Went fine..except that I did the first two at 95, because my meathead math skills weren't up to par...

Wod:
Amrap in 15 minutes
100 m run
10 sumo deadlift high pulls 35# kettlebell or dumbbell
10 thrusters 45# bar

7 rounds and the 100 m

You know what sucks? When you're looking for the suck in a wod and you're thinking, Hmm, where's the suck? And then you realize...the weights are pretty light...and there is NO reason to put the bar down...that is where the suck was hiding, in plain sight...

Skill: 40 handstand rocks each side
Try 20 facing the wall, 20 facing away
