Crossfit: JT workout

So Crossfit names some of their extra hard workouts after fallen heroes (cops, military people, etc, who have died in the line of duty). Today's workout is named for JT. I tried to give JT my best. But man, it was HARD.

Warmup:
50 jumprope
20 box jumps
15 squat-to-throw medicine ball against the wall
~20 clean motion using 10-lb ball (I want to learn cleans the right way)

Workout:
3 sets of the following:
Handstand pushups (I did mine with my legs on a 20" box)
Ring dips (I jumped into straight arms above the rings)
Pushups

First set, 21 reps
Second set, 15 reps
Third set, 9 reps

Ow. I failed during the regular pushups a lot, I was really pushing my muscles to fatigue. Woot!

My NemeTeammates Hellyer and Meagles were there with me, yay! Hellyer finished a little before me doing the same stuff as me. Meagles did actual ring dips with band assistance, she was AWESOME!
