WOD:
20-min. AMRAP
3 Deadlifts (275-lbs.)
5 Handstand Pushups
8 Burpees
Total Rounds: 11.33-rds. (+4 HSPU)
So I saw the WOD last night and immediately was a little hesitant. 20 minutes of deadlifts plus HSPUs... I had visions of dangerously rounded backs, and burnt shoulders that resembled jello. BUT! and I do mean "but," the WOD wasn't nearly as bad as one would've thought. Things did get increasingly difficult as the twenty minutes slowly ticked away but they also managed to stay doable.
One thing that I've noticed I do lately is mentally psych myself out prior to hitting what I would deem a more "difficult" WOD. This happened during last Friday's "Muscle Bear" WOD that consisted of Muscle Ups & The Bear Complex. I came into that WOD mentally defeated.
I think it's pretty safe to say I need more mental resolve... more heart!

11 rounds is awesome. I was cursing you when I could not get 10.
