Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all ~ Sam Ewing
Muscle ups and Snatches are the bane of my existence! Well, at least they were up to a few weeks ago. For the past couple weeks these two seemingly separate movements have been put into my programming over and over... thankfully to my advantage. Today I actually felt that I was coming together with both movements and gaining a confidence I've never had before... excited to see what the next 4 weeks will bring and I know I can expect some PR's very soon.
PM: Studeo55
A) Muscle-ups:
15 minutes of work
Focusing on transition for multiple reps.
B) Snatch:
20 minutes of work
Focusing on full squat and getting under the bar fast... worked my weights up to 175lbs until my right knee started acting up.
C) WOD: 12 minute AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible)
- 8 x 95lbs Push-press
- 10 x Hand-release push-ups
- 12 x 32kg Kettlebell swings
I just managed to eke out the last rep of my 8th round to round up
my total at 8 rounds.
