Skill
squats/pistols
Pistols are basically one legged squats. After a little warm up standing on the ground and balancing using a pole, I was able to transition to the box and actually perform a pistol. My right leg is stronger and at one point, I successfully completed two pistols in a row. My left leg is not as strong. I can get to the bottom position but can not explode upwards. I was able to complete a single rep left legged pistol twice.

WOD
AMRAP (as many rounds/reps as possible) in 20:00
5 pull ups
5 wall balls
5 burpees
5 hspu

Results
20 lb wall ball, box modified hspu
9 rounds + burpees

Recorded in garmin connect. Heart rates during this workout: average 180, max 196.

This work out was very good and taxing. I am disappointed I did not complete 10 full rounds. By far the pull ups took the largest amount of time. In the latter rounds, I was doing 3 pull ups, resting, and then 2 more. My endurance on the pull ups was bad. I opted not to use a band for assistance. I think that was the right choice.
I will be extremely disappointed if the next time (as long as it is not tomorrow) I do this work out I do not complete 11 + rounds. Unless I am doing a harder version of hspu.
