Metcon:
Four rounds for time of:
5 pull-ups
10 box jumps (24" box)
15 push press (moderate)


note- do jumping pull-ups or use resistance bands if you need to.  Scale the box jump height down too if that's going to be too high.  Practice a few push presses just to find the right weight, remember you're going to be doing 60 so don't bite off more than you can chew.   


After Burner:
2 Minutes x max reps of:
Toes to Bar, or knees to elbows.  If you have access to a set of rings, use them.  They'll be easier.  Standard pull-up will be fine too.  If you're having trouble with T2B or K2E then just hang there and do knee lifts.  Try to see how many times you can raise your knees up to your chest.
