Commentary
For the presses, my rounds were done at 95lb, 135lb, 145lb, 155lb, 165lb. I had to fight the strict press at 165, but I managed to lock it out.
The burpees in the metcon were a disaster for me. By the second or third rounds, it was taking me close to 2:00 minutes to complete. This is 12 seconds a burpee. An exceptional pace would be 4 to 5 seconds a burpee.
After the first round, I was getting to the wallballs with 30 to 40 seconds on the clock, and I used a 20lb wallball for the first round and moved to a 30lb ball for the remaining of the workout. My scores were 21, 13, 8, 5, and 11.
