Nothing fancy here, just drilled DUs for 10 minutes off an on. Hit one big set of 78.. Getting better all the time.
I have found that if I just focus on the "jump straight up and down" aspect, my hands sort of just do the work blindly without even having think about it.. my jumps are just timed based on noise, not movement.. its weird..
WOD- "Jackie"
Row 1000m
50 Thrusters 45#
30 Pull ups
Time - 7:12
This was a new PR for me (by 46 seconds) but I feel like I even left a lot on the table here.
I tried to pull a smooth 1:46-1:50 or so on the row the whole time so I didn't gas out, finished in the 3:30s somewhere. On the thrusters, Nick and Sean jumped out ahead of me so I just told myself "you are not allowed to drop the bar until they have dropped it twice so that you can catch up".. As it turned out I ended up doing the first 40 in a row, dropped it for a second to shake out my hands, then finished the last 10.
Pull ups went sort of shitty. I was hoping to knock out like 15-20 on the first big set and then crawl to the finish line with 3s or so. But I got on the bar and only managed 7 before my forearms started burning and my hips were gassed from all the thrusters (for kipping).
I went something like 7,5,5,3,3,3,4.. all over the map.. no clean good sets, just shaking around like a fish on the line battling.
Next time the goal is sub 7 minutes and a lot better sets on the pull ups..
