Mobility done.
A) worked up to 90, felt good and solid thru 85
B) overhead position is really giving me trouble in my left trap so only did these at 95. Probably should have skipped it altogether but it’s one of my favorite moves
C) 115. Low back feeling stronger and more stable. Will continue to work on getting my squats back where they belong
D) skipped, but did air dyne :30 on, :30 off x5 = 54 calories

A. (125); no boxes…paused at patella…85, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120…120 went well so kept going-hit 125 (not from patella), then tried for new PR at 130 missed several, so close, finally nabbed 130 power snatch-PR
C. (185); 155 for 3
*My bff had to do some horrible running Diane, so I joined her in the misery…200M after each set of DL. HSPU are not my strong suit-all singles. 24:52 Had foot taped felt better than last weeks 200M bouts, but still suffered after. (Nicole-still need to fill you in, but was trying new taping).

Does “Muscle -Up x 3/1” mean to substitute 3 pull-ups & 1 dip if I can’t do a muscle up?

That means 3 muscle ups for men, 1 muscle up for women

Away this weekend at the in laws farm in PA. It’s times like today that I realize how much what we do in the gym helps outside the gym. We moved large rocks from a stream bed to build a stone wall. So much fun work! Loved being outside all day.
Have a great weekend everyone 🙂
