    Instead of muscle ups was trying to work on hips to rings.Back to Paoli drills afterwards to start working from the beginning. L sits were 30 sec but legs were dropping (feel like quads will cramp if I leave them fully extended).

    B. Every minute, on the minute, for 12 minutes:
    Clean & Jerk x 1 rep
    Minutes 1-2 = 70% of 1-RM
    Minutes 3-4 = 75% of 1-RM

    Minutes 7-8 = 85% of 1-RM
    Minutes 9-10 = 90% of 1-RM
    Minutes 11-12 = 95% of 1-RM

    117-123-132-141-150-156# (all reps completed, felt really good on these)

    (high hang, then mid-thigh)

    C.Three sets of:
    Ring Dips (with a hold) x 10-15 reps @ 20X2
    (externally rotate at the top, thumbs out and hold for 2 seconds)
    Rest 30 seconds
    Weighted Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups x 8 Reps
    (all weighted pull-ups should be strict – a little bit of body english at the top is acceptable)
    Rest 30 seconds

    Ring dips done…was able to do them mostly in sets of 3-4 rather than singles and doubles like last week. C2B done unweighted (sup grip).

    4. First workout was fast paced and awesome but my barbell had a problem and so I had to find another metcon to do afterwards. Second workout wasn't so fast paced but it was still fun. Although there wasn't much lactic acid buildup occurring during the actual metcon.

  • Back Squat / GHD Workout

    Warmup:
    3 rounds:
    10 second samson stretch each leg
    10 back extensions
    5 GHD (there will be more later...)
    10 OHS (45,95,115)
    10 Back Squat (95,115,155)

    WOD:
    For time:
    225 pound Back squat, 21 reps
    42 GHD Sit-ups
    225 pound Back squat, 15 reps
    30 GHD Sit-ups
    225 pound Back squat, 9 reps
    18 GHD Sit-ups

    Great WOD. Had juice leftover at end. For the back squats, I put a 12" jump box on top of 2 45 lb plates under my butt, when my butt touched that was a rep.

    Took a little longer because I had to fend jokers away from my squat rack when I was doing the 42 GHDs. I was only away from the rack for ~45 seconds and they started clearing off my plates. WTF.
