A Fistfull of PRs

A month and a half ago, we tested our strict handstand push ups and our deadlifts. To be more specific, we saw how many strict handstand push ups we could do in a row and what our 1rm deadlift was. Today we re-tested to see if we had improved.

I saw at least 6 people break their old scores today. Probably more and I just lost count. How did this happen? Unsurprisingly, I inserted a bunch of handstand work and deadlifts in the workouts over the last 8 weeks. Those two moves were in heavy rotation. We did all the other standard CrossFit moves, of course – just with a slight lean toward deadlifts and handstands.

The next two months will have a new focus. Two new moves. Care to guess what they will be?
