The Waiter's Walk: carrying one heavy object overhead, like a waiter would carry a tray. Builds shoulder strength, core stability, and grip strength.

Jesus H. Christ! No wonder it took me so long. I did this at home:

5 Rounds:
5R DB Snatch
50 Waiter Walks
21 Burpees
5L DB Snatch
50 Waiter Walks
21 Burpees

Time: 39:50

Somebody snuck an extra 5 rounds of 21 burbees in there on me! No wonder my heart rate pegged at 100%.

I tried one round with the 35 lb KB, but it was too much for the shoulder. Dropped down to 20 lb DB, and that worked well.
