Handstand Push-Ups
10 minutes to practice Kipping Handstand Push-Ups. 1-2 AbMats is okay. The buy-in is 1 Strict HSPU. If you can't perform a Strict HSPU, then perform 5 x 3 HSPU Negatives (3 seconds down) or 3 x 10 DB Push Press, as heavy as possible. Add a deficit to your range-of-motion if you can perform sets of 10 easily.

CrossFit Open Score Submissions
A reminder for Open competitors: In order for your score to be counted, you must submit your score and judge's name to the CrossFit Games site by 8pm tonight. If you don't submit a score, you'll get a zero for the workout, but you’ll still be allowed to participate in the subsequent workouts. CFSBK Open Intramural Team captains: don't forget to submit your team's scores to the spreadsheet by tomorrow at noon!
