5 Rounds of the following: 5x Pistol Squat + 5x Pike Press (or handstand push-up) + 5x Pull-ups

Notes: Do a progression for pistol squats, pike presses/handstand push-up, and pull-ups that is challenging for you.  If you complete 5 repetitions fairly easily with one progression move on to the next progression in the following set.  Lookup my friend Al Kavadlo’s Youtube channel for progression instruction.
