For the following workout, refer to the handstand pushups (hspu) I want you to use the most advanced progression of the hspu as possible. If that means it’s just a messed up looking pushup, then that’s great. If it’s with your feet actually up in the air, more power to you. All video demos posted below the workout.

10 Rounds of 10 Reps Each

Wallball
