Pull ups: used the total trainer here with added weight. This way I could go all the way up, no cheating, squeeze at the top. The weight is added is how much is added. At the highest incline the total weight is 0.69 x (BW * added weight) So at 190 lbs + 80 lbs it is like pulling 180 (or so). I think this is better than the lat pulldown machine.
Dumbell thrusters: Interestingly, the rate limiting factor here is cardiovascular.
Turkish getup: OMG! Harder than it looks. There is clearly a learning curve though as it got easier, the more I did them.
