Two-a-day Thursdays wooooooooooo!!
SWOD - Muscle Ups - 4 sets for max reps
I decided to work some muscle ups, haven't worked them exclusively in a while. I am getting more comfortable with always getting the first one (as long as my false grip starts out pretty perfect) and the multiple reps are improving, but are still a work in progress.. I ended up getting 4,4,3,3 for my reps in a row which I was pretty happy with.. I think unfortunately the only way to get better at muscle ups... is to do muscle ups.. All the ring pull ups and ring dips on the planet don't really help all that much for me.. the transition is the whole thing..
Goal by mid-fall or so is to get to 10 in a row.. I think I can manage it if I keep practicing.. But these are incredibly taxing on the shoulders.. especially when you start missing reps..

150 Wall Ball Shots
(20 lb ball)
Time - 6:08
I have been wanting to try this one for a while, seemed like a purely mental one on paper because each wall ball is not a big effort, but I had no idea how 150 would feel..
I ended up going for about 70 unbroken which surprised me, I thought I was going to have to break it up earlier on. After that every time I started up again I tried to get a minimum of 10, usually more.. Everything after 100 was pretty difficult, but I tried to minimize my rests.. I used my phone to time it so I had no clue where I was at timewise in the middle.. If I knew I was that close to getting sub-6 I probably had more in me to push harder toward the end..
Oh well.. Something to shoot for next time..
Karen, is always a bag of douche...
