    Did sets of 10 wall balls from the start. In hindsight, I could have pushed harder because I was easily able to do 10 at a time each round. The 2nd round was the hardest. After that it was smooth sailing.

    20 Hang squat cleans, 35 pound dumbbells
    25 Back extensions
    30 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
    3 Rope climb ascents
    The only thing that I didn't do As Rx was that I used a 70 lb dumbell for the KB swings.
    First time doing box jumps in well over a month.. my ankle has been hurt and my achiles is hurt as well. Most of the other movements were not too bad.. I broke up the KB swings into 12,10,8, then broke up the hang squat cleans to something like 8,7,5, then the back extensions into 10,10,5 (mainly to not get too taxed for killing the last sets. Wallballs were tough for some reasons.. probably because I did 150 a day ago (broke the WBs into 14,10,6), the rope climbs were pretty fast.. done with about 5-10 secs break inbetween.
    Fun WOD... I lost a little bit of time when I was transitioning and lost the piece of paper with the reps and routine.. I had to run back and get it.. probably lost about 30-45 seconds there... also I lost a bunch of time having to go upstairs
    last time I did this on 9/12/2011 in about 15:18.. so this time I was about 1 minute slower... oh well.
