I hate wallballs.  Especially wallballs to a 10' target.  I had an easier time hitting the 10' target today than in December, and the first 100 actually felt pretty good, but the last 40 felt almost impossible.

13.3
12 minute AMRAP of:
150 Wall balls
90 Double-unders
30 Muscle-ups


182 (wb done at 10:38)
Ended up pretty much exactly where I expected. Happy overall, considering last year I didn’t even finish the wall balls and my double unders are inconsistent at best.  Did 10 every 0:30 for 50, then finished it with sets of 5-8.  DU felt like I was jumping in quicksand.  Rob did an excellent job pacing!
