Getting into the shelf

5 rounds for time:

5 Thruster @70kg

5 Muscle-ups

400 m

Time – 28:25 (with CP who performed 1 muscle-ups per round instead)

Thrusters felt good but I didn’t wanna do em after each run. Spent the most time as expected on the muscle-ups. I have to work on some mobility on my left shoulder as I’m restricted by not getting into the right position at the bottom of the dip.

Amazing mix of weight-lifting, bodyweight and monostructural movements.

Doing double unders on their own – not much sweat. Incorporating em into a workout which taxes heavily on thy shoulders? Different story.

“Death by Thrusters”

With a continuously running clock, do 1 Thruster the first minute, 2 Thrusters the second minute, 3 Thrusters the third minute.. continuing for as many minutes as you are able to. Use as many sets as needed to complete the Thrusters. Record total number of minutes and reps completed.
*Thrusters @60kg

8 rounds + 6 reps

It got horrible by round 7 with muscle fatigue. Those are some heavy thrusters.

5 rounds of max reps strict pull-ups

12, 12, 11, 10, 10

Finally decided to bang out some heavy presses. It is absolutely essential to keep the midline tight and stable. I managed to push through the sticking point on the last set. Thrusters tag team wod were crazy on the shoulders, esp after the strength training. Then I did the tabatas with JW again and it turned out to be really fun.

5 rounds for time:

10 95lbs thrusters

20 pushups

Time – 13:53

Signs that you’re too tired: Unable to string 10 consecutive pushups in the first round. AND dropping the bar on the last round because I was too winded, taking a lil bit of flesh off my shins.

Greg doesn’t like listening to his body. So it decided to show him who’s boss.
