did games prep
Session one I dropped down to 205 and skipped most of the 10 reps of squats after a mental disaster when I could not handle the 225. I finished my lest reps of Burpees Box jump overs after the 16 min mark- Cheryl talked me into doing 5 OHS at 205 to finish- I was able to do them unbroken. small win after a mental melt down

Temp run 2.6 miles at 24 min – 9:11 pace

Games Prep: A. 30 mins of Ring Muscle up work: I can string 3 to 4 together now but still missing that explosive hip drive so I went back to working on Singles and doubles today… Until I ripped my callous off! ? Thank you for the help Al! B. Regional Event 6: 14:49 Rx. Was a little unsure how the overhead squats would feel at 155# for that many reps; went 5/3/2 on first 10, and then ironically the last 5 OHS felt easier than the first set did, and was able to hang on unbroken on those.

Our box jump overs werenʻt nearly as wide as what they have at Regionals, and apparently I didnʻt do the correct height for the last 10…oh well! I think hindsight I should have pushed the pace more…just wasnʻt certain how those last set of OHS were going to feel.

You should be pulling more vertical than a peek-a-boo swing

Off-Season
Session 1
A. Did 20 of the Kick-ups to handstand. Found that on the second half I had quite a few where I hit that balance spot. Happy with how that went.
B. Kipping Pull-ups. – able to do sets of 10. Certainly a little more tiring than on a bar.
Box Jump-ups – 10 sets with 2 dips
C. 16:48 – DU’s and Squats unbroken, but split up the Pull-ups into sets of 5.
Session 2 – later today

Thanks Leticia… I did this with a seventeen year old kid who beat me by about 15 seconds… ?? But his pull ups were sketchy. I had problems with the las three sets of DUs breaking. I need to get faster at those.
