ANGRY GORILLA

Take a wide stance (sumo stance) and make your hands into a fist. Bring your fists down to the ground in between your feet. Lower the hips and raise your chest (just like a deadlift) and look like an 'angry gorilla.' Swing your arms forward and place them far in front of you. While keeping a nice back position, place all your weight on your hands and swing your body forward. Assume the angry gorilla stance and reset the back. Continue moving forward for the designated distance.
Here is a link to the CrossFit Journal on the Deadlift, which highlights the Angry Gorilla stance:
