5 rounds of

  • 3 x Weighted Pullup @ 13kg
  • 8 x Russian Pushups
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then Street Parking’s Vault #6, every 4 minutes for 20 minutes

  • 15 x Dumbbell Push Press @ 18kg
  • 10 x Burpees Pullups
  • 12 Calorie Row

Results: Original SP WOD is 24 minutes long, but with the Weighted Pullups at the beginning, I dropped the last set. As a standalone workout would do all 6. As it was, I had just over 1 minute rest per round except the last which I finished with 45 seconds to spare.

EMOM for 10 minutes

  • 1 x Strict Ring Muscle Up from Floor

4 rounds of

  • 6-8 x Tempo Bench Press @ 65-70% of 3RM (3 second ascent/3 second descent)

Then the Crossfit WOD from Dec. 18, 5 rounds for time of

  • 15 x Push Press/Jerk @ 75lbs
  • 12 x Pullups
  • 9 x Sumo Deadlift High Pulls @ 75lbs

Been focusing on Muscle Ups for a couple of weeks now. Seeing if adding regular volume will allow me to get the strength to do a real slow strict movement. Planning the same for Handstands, wondering if spending just 5-10 minutes 2-3 times per week will help me finally get stable.
