   Made 230 reps...not to bad, I just need to get double unders down. If I were to do this again, I would push a little harder on the snatches to try and get a few more rounds.

     That's a bunch of kb swings. I used the 55# today for 3 rounds. I couldn't have made 7 rounds.
     I'm not an expert on the double unders but getting much better. Consistent jumping and spinning the rope faster are the keys for me.

      Almost the same as Toes to Bar, but I thought the rings were a little easier...probably since I did them all!
