Fitness - Handstand Work, Dead Lift/Push Up WOD - 2/4

Focus: Lots of shoulder mobility stretching and movement, then into some handstand work. First against the wall with some hspu's, press to hand stand on parallettes. And finally, some handstand work out in free space with a spotter. I'm so close to getting this with no support.

WOD as Rx'd: EMOTM 1 of each. Second minute, 2 of each. Third minute, three of each etc. . . . for 20 minutes of:
Kettle bell dead lift - 24 Kg bell in each hand
Push ups

My version of the same WOD: EMOTM (starting at 10 reps each) 1st minute, 10 of each. 2nd minute, 11 of each. 3rd minute, 12 of each etc. . . for 20 minutes (ending at 30 of each) of:
Kettle bell dead lift: 32 Kg bell in each hand
Ring push ups

Score/Time: N/A
Calories burned (focus & WOD): 789

This was pretty tough. Dave gave me this challenge knowing I wouldn't get the all 20 minutes unbroken. I was able to get through round 12 (21 of each) before I had to scale it back. I cut the reps back to 8 each and started building up again. I also switched from ring push ups to regular push ups.
