30 Muscle-Ups for time

Sameer — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 19:32:53 +0000

Today Jeremy and I went up to CrossFit Brooklyn in Williamsburgh for some fun. The WOD on the schedule was 30 muscle-ups for time. I decided to do as many muscle-ups as I could and then do a 3x sub. The muscle-ups didn’t go so well, I managed to get one muscle-up on my second try but then the 3rd try was all messed up, my timing was off, so I went straight into the dips and pullups. That was going but after 16 rounds I was completely spent. Dips were no longer possible. So I switched to negs on the dips and I got it done in 29:something. 29:50 I think.

Deadlift 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Sameer — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 17:52:19 +0000

Deadlift workout today. Didn’t think I’d do all that well, but I scored a big PR.

285/295/305/315pr/255/255/255

The 305 went up so much more easily than when I hit it last time, so I was fairly confident on going up. 310 or 315 was the question. I decided to go big for 315. I figure if I had done 310 I would have been too wiped to hit 315, so it was a good choice. If I didn’t make 315, I probably would have been too wiped to hit 310, but the risk paid off.

Afterwards we did a jump rope accessory workout. I debated trying to do doubles, but the first round was all screwed up because I picked out a rope that was too long, so for subsequent rounds I just did singles. I know that doesn’t follow directly, but I just figured I’d get singles. Must do more double practice. So, four rounds, 1 minute on, 1 minute off:

130/120/130/130
