Morning workout - with jetlag.

8x2 Sumo deadlift (120KG - can probably push it up a few KG next time, but grip was going)
8x2 dumbell shoulder presses (26Kg each right on the limit for good form - could even drop it down a bit)

WOD 12minutes amrap:
8x chest-to-bar pullup (turns out I wasn't really doing it - chest is supposed to be over the bar. Used a blue band, and still struggled)
8 x 32Kg KB swings.

Did 8 rounds + 1 pullup.
