WOD:

27/21 Calorie Row
27 Hand Release Push Ups
27 Chest to Bar Pull-ups
rest 4 minutes

21 Hand Release Push Ups
21 Toes to Bar
rest 4 minutes
AMRAP 4:
15/9 Calorie Row
15 Hand Release Push Ups
15 Pull-ups
*Score each AMRAP separately
If no rower – Sumo deadlift High Pull (95/65). 1 rep per Cal
Three mini-AMRAPs with 4 minutes of rest between. The rest should allow you to attack each one with full force. If you notice, the only change to the rowing and push ups is the amount (they decrease each AMRAP), but the pull up bar movement changes each AMRAP.
Video courtesy of WOD Star. *If you at a spot where there are no rowers, you’ll sub sumo deadlift high pulls. This mimics the movement and stimulus of the rower pretty darn close
