Sunday 8/28

So today was supposed to be running followed by strength but cloudy skies with lightning changed all that. I hate running on treadmills so I just decided to work on pull ups with a death by pull up workout. I also added power cleans to my strength workout.

Warm up:
2 x Barbell complex (89lb)

Strength:
Back squat 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5
165 - 165 - 165 - 165 - 165

Power clean 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5
133 - 133 - 133 - 133 - 133

Conditioning:
Death by pull up
Completed 13 rounds

So a major shift in form today. For my entire crossfit life I've been doing a reverse grip for kipping pull ups. Basically a kipping chin up. Today was my first attempt in a pull up heavy workout to actually do a pull up with grip facing outward. I think it was a successful first go.

Cool down:
1000m Row (4:30)
