WOD

10 Pull-Ups
10 Push-Ups

Rest 4 Minutes then

AMRAP in 8 Minutes

10 Alternating Pistols
10 Push-Ups

Workout notes: The format of this workout might be something that is a little unfamiliar to you. You have two time priority workouts with a total of 16 minutes work and 4 minutes rest between AMRAPs. BOTH workouts contain push-ups but we swap out pull-ups for one legged squats on the second round. The pistol is always difficult so find a scaling option that gets you working in the direction of completing the movement to the full range of motion. Using a box or other object to scale is a great idea.
