Final time hitting our OHS before our 5X5 re-test. What we’re looking for today is a heavy set of 5, followed by a heavier set of 4, then an even heavier triple, followed by an even heavier double, and finished off with an EVEN heavier single to finish off. Notice I did not save 1RM. But, if that happens, cool.
WOD:
14 min AMRAP:
7 Pull-ups
7 Russian Kettlebell Swings (70/55)
7 Burpees to 6″ target above reach

With the rep count per movement and the time domain, make your primary goal to keep your movements as steady as possible for the entire 14 Min. That means, the only rest you should take is transitioning from one movement to the other.
Scaling Options:
Pull Ups -> Banded Pull Ups -> Buddha Pull Ups -> Ring Rows (ELITE: Chest2Bar)
KB weight -> 55/35 -> as needed (ELITE: Am KBS at 70/55)
Cool Down:
Thoracic Extension on Med Ball – 2 Min per side
Cross-body Lat Stretch – 1 Min per side
