Muscle Ups + Muscle Ups

Thursday, August 15
4:00pm @ RNCF

2 Rounds Not for Time:
50 DU
5 Sots BB Press (men's bar)
5 OH Squat (men's bar)
5 DB Snatch (each arm)(40, 50#)
1 Rope Climb

NOTES: Everything felt pretty good. The DB snatches felt pretty light.

Squat Snatch
2 @ 75% (115)
2 @ 80% (115)
3 x 1 @ 85% (125)
1 @ 80% (115)

NOTES: These highlighted how far forward I am throwing the bar. It was pitiful. I wasn't able to get under the 115 because it was so far in front of me. I did get all my reps in, but I had a lot of no reps. I'm going to try and go work with Terry for a little bit to try and fix all these bugs.

Jerk
2 @ 75% (150)
2 @ 80% (160)
3 x 1 @ 85% (175)

NOTES: I did these off the blocks (after I spent about 20 min trying to assemble them to the correct height and drag them across the floor). Even after lowering the blocks, I still couldn't dip as far as I wanted to without hitting the bottoms of the weights on the top of the blocks - so that made things interesting. I wasn't dropping very far under the bar because the weight wasn't that heavy. But, once I got to 175 and I started dropping, I felt a lot more comfortable.

WOD
5 Rounds
5 MU
10 Shoulder to OH (100# with axle bar)
50 DU

TIME: 15:15
NOTES: I was really proud of this WOD. Before today, I was never ever to link multiple MUs in a WOD. Today, I did the first 5 UB and the last four sets 3/2. I did the first shoulder to OH UB and the rest 7/3. I also ended up breaking up the DU into 35/15 in order to give my shoulders a quick rest so I didn't fatigue.


Cheers to sweet potato fries!
