Moved down to the 15# plate on the heel for pistols tonight, felt pretty solid actually. Doing sets of 5 instead of 10 certainly helped but it still felt much more stable than usual.. Quads burn a lot from these but my balance felt the best it arguably ever has on pistols.. so, progress?
Ring rows I have no trouble with in general.. In the past I said I was going to start weighting them, but today was not a good day since I had 120 pull ups ahead of me. My lats thanked me. I just used these as a warmup for the bis/lats/etc.

10 Rounds:
12 Burpees
12 Pull ups
Time 14:49 Rx'd
I got in just barely under the cap of 15 minutes on this one which made me happy, but holy god was this a lung and hand burner. I was able to get through the first 5 rounds without breaking on a pull up or a burpee set.. but from then on the wheels fell off a bit.. I mostly tried to break it down into sets of 8/4 or 7/5 for either movement and keep moving forward at all costs, even if I slowed down.. Just tried not to come to many dead stops. I haven't done pull ups in a while surprisingly (just looked through my training log) and somehow I managed to get through them without much trouble and without my hands ripping up.. small victories!
Lost to Brie by like 5 seconds though.. bitch..
