Waiter walk.

Man, we do waiter walks with our RKB routine, and oh boy do they hurt. Awesome stretch! For added pain and suffering, do them from the pistol pump position.
Pistol pump-Hold the bell by the handle, and balance the weighted/bell portion in the air. (The bell will be upside down basically, handle to the deck) Squeeze like crazy on these, you could be tasting your bell otherwise.
For a challenge, do it with 2 bells!
Next time on "TGI Friday's Employee Boot Camp", the stupid button obstacle course!
How do you perform the Waiter's Walk?
Put a heavy weight over your head with one hand - like a waiter carrying a food tray - and go for a walk.
If I'm too wiped out from BJJ and the WOD I do a workout I came up with. Snatch a 50lb dumbell to overhead, squat down pick up another one and walk a while. Drop them, snatch with other hand and repeat. I do 10 reps/walks per side. Works the core and caardio like crazy...
Did 3.6 miles in 40 minutes plus tried to do unassisted pull ups. (accomplished 1/2 of one and did 4 assisted. What a morning.
