20:20 full hand turn out at bottom and no dropping off rings until full extension @ bottom, rows @ damper 6 under 1:45 500m place thru out, I wanted sub 20 but failed on 1 MU in 3rd & 5th rd.
Nice work Gord. DJ, awesome rows.

Hey Rob,

Is the standard to complete the MU with a full hang?

Hixy said...

Does 7 MU's closely relate to 12 strict ring dips and 12 CTB pull-ups?

PTS said...

my subs:
40 SDLHP 45lbs
12 rings dips/ 12 CTB P/U

it sucks not having a rower, and still not being able to do a dead hang MU

19:53 (nice job, Chad!)

I thought I'd be faster after MU's felt so good in warm-up but they went south quickly. Generally it's the false grip that starts slipping and my contact wasn't as good with the bar as it was with Nate.

Rows were a let down, I've been struggling with severe burning in the legs on many of the workouts lately so I don't know if I'm buffering the lactic acid out of my legs poorly but wow, they were like lead on the rows. First round overall was 3:30 so that pace was too hard to maintain but average row was 1:45.

Sweeney,
If you go off the CF main site the standard is hands turned out when you start & a full hang at the bottom before getting off the rings(similar to on the minute pull ups).
If you are working toward doing multiple reps at some point, I think it is a good idea to get full extension at the bottom, as you need to do this when you do multiples.
Anyone else care to comment?

23:41.

First round was also 3:30.

Second round was when I started to fail the MU and it just got worse from there. I wasted some valuable time throwing a temper tantrum, when Geoff handed me a pacifier. Things progressed slightly from that point onward until the last round where it took me about 13 attempts to complete 7 MU.

It was a battle, but I got 'er done.

Next!!

Rows @ 8 and ranged from 1:38-1:45
MU's were full singles all the way with no failures. Great workout

I decided to be a boxrownast and did 3 rounds at a light pace for my boxing workout

Brent Maier said...

Geoff, your comment regarding the bar grip and Nate made me think I misread the workout for a sec. Wish I could have been there for sweenys temper tantrum.

This workout complements J.T. perfectly!

Splits: 2:20/2:49/3:03/3:20/3:21

That is a sick time, Brent, you need to put that one up on YouTube.

Brent Maier said...

Yeah, I wish I had taped this one considering the times. I still have my sub 6 minute Randy to post that we did last week. Family, work, crossfit, sleep, you all know how it is.

Tomorrows workout looks great! I'm thinking it was a bad idea to work interval overhead squats into my post workout today. *head shaking*

Rob Sifton said...

damper at 8
Time = 18:23

Did all ones as I am not efficient at getting the grip in the way down and come off the rings lots anyways.

Took yesterday off as I got tied up with other stuff.

Great time Brent, WOW!

19:59 as rx'd. Happy with this, since my previous best 30 MU's for time was somewhere around 21 mins.
