WHITEBOARD – 4 May 2011

Workload:

Skill Day
20 Muscle-ups or 20 Strict Bar Dips & 20 Strict pull-ups

Notes: Work on the muscle up as a skill. It could be working on getting the false grip down with an aided muscle-up (feet or toes on ground), a full kipping muscle-up w/ a full turn out at the bottom, consecutive muscle-ups, muscle-up without a false grip, or deadhang muscle-ups.

Just pick a skill that is slightly out of reach for you at the moment and take time to work on it. Once you have worked on the skill perform 20 muscle-ups or the sub to finish. If you did a lot of reps to work on the skill then don’t worry about the 20 reps to finish.

Have fun.

    2 very sore legs today.

    Muscle ups.

    25 attempts = 25 frustrating failures

    Upside… I found myself not as tired and not as much joint pain or blistered wrists as previously.

    Many attempts, many failures. My kip just wasn’t there. I blame allergies.

    No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...
