7 rds + 7. PP were the worst part!
KBS felt like slinging a 5# dumbbell after that heavy PP.

I've got to get better at those box jumps...jumping off the box has GOT to be better for speed purposes. (I think that means retraining my brain in the long run)

Interesting you mention jumping off the box. Cole and I were discussing this same thing after today's WOD. I guess it all boils down to what are your goals? Faster times or relatively painless ambulation? I fail to see any benefit of jumping off the box other than to link the jumps and go faster. The benefit of developing explosive strength happens getting onto the box, not getting off the box. Jumping off the box (for me, anyway) is a rather painful demonstration of the law of gravity.

Love to read such things, they always interest me and usually I have a question: why?

9 rounds + 3 PP : scaled to 70# PP the rest was RXed.
I agree with Kerri, push press was the hardest part. I also think my arms were still trying to recover from Friday’s deadlift and push up WOD- Ouch! Great Hero WOD though!
