The Crossfit Games 17.4

Hello followers! I'm back and I'm going to tell you about the hardest workout that I ever completed ! It's titled 17.4 by the 2017 Crossfit games committee. This workout was completed by my gym partner Chris Anderson and myself, I went first. The workout consists of as many rounds/reps as you can in 13 minutes. 1 round is ...
55 Deadlifts of 225lbs
55 Wall ball shots
55 Calorie Row
55 Handstand push-ups. 
In that order. 

We both tied and managed to get  7 handstand push-ups before time was up. 

 This is a workout that I had my doubts about before going to the gym. I say that because of the small amount of time you have to complete the workout. The day this workout was announced via the crossfit games YouTube channel, Crossfit games competitor Brooke Wells and Mexico's fittest woman Brenda Castro completed this workout with a fair amount of energy left. Chris and I had a very different ending, we pretty much laid flat on the gym floor as soon as the 13 minutes was up. This workout feels like running 10 "suicide sprints"as fast as you possibly can, non stop. Don't be afraid to try this workout or to modify it to your standard. Also be safe while doing Crossfit, it's not just something that can be jumped into.
