I was able to do six strict pullups using a purple band which is awesome considering I was using a green or black band when I first showed up last July.  The WOD was interesting and I was surprised at how difficult the flutter kicks became at the end.  I wasted some time on the hand walks because I thought you had to stand up after each one through my 7th round.  Once I stopped standing up everything went quicker.

I was slower than I would have liked in this WOD but I was trying to focus on my form for the box jumps and pushups more than anything.  Specifically I was trying to work on using my hips when jumping up on the box and leading with my butt on the pushups which held me up a bit but I felt better about the box jumps (using my hips) and pushups (leading with the butt).

I liked this WOD but it was our first workout after a 1.5 wks of nothing and sickness so my chest was burning quite a bit afterwards.  I focused on keeping my form for the snatch, deadlift and SDHP specifically opening my hips on the snatch.  I know that I could have done better but it was our first workout back from a lengthy sickness.
