After a couple days off, I was ready to get after it a bit. So today I went after one of the wod's from the NE CrossFit Game's Qualifier. It was a 10 to 1 (10 of each, then 9 of each, then 8...on down to 1) of:
-power clean, 155#
-pullups, chest to bar
-american kb swing, 24kg
time=18:50
This was a pretty weak time and wouldn't have been competitive in a qualifier but the cool thing was I did all the pull-ups chest to bar. True story, I hit my chest on the bar for every one of my pull-up reps. It slowed me down significantly but I did it. This was the first workout I've ever completed hitting chest to bar on every rep. I was bummed that I didn't push the pace harder. But so stoked I hit chest to bar on every pull-up. All 55 of them. Chest to bar will likely be my standard from now on for every workout including pull-ups. I'm hoping it will really increase my work capacity for the movement. Stay tuned.
