30 Muscle-ups for time, take III

This was my 3rd attempt at this one and I finally got it!!

My time - 13:56. The last 2 took me over 2 minutes.

I've started following main page WOD's to gear up for the fittest in MI competition as well as the regional next month. Let's see how long I can go before I have to scale something....(please, no pistols!!!)

"DT"

Five rounds for time of:
155 pound Deadlift, 12 reps
155 pound Hang power clean, 9 reps
155 pound Push jerk, 6 reps

23:58 Rx'd

I think I may have accidentally done 7 hang cleans in a round or 2 but I don't really think it matters in terms of work done...because I had to drop it a few times doing the push jerks and had to clean it back up. I didn't use a rack.

I'm trying to follow mainpage as close as possible...since I did helen a few weeks ago I'm going to adjust the WOD for tomorrow. I'll do ring dips instead of pullups.

I know this is 'cheating' a bit but I'll do helen next time it comes up.

Helen w/ a twist...

3 rounds for time of

400 M run
21 KB swings 1.5 pood
12 Ring dips (No kip)

9:14

My last helen time was 9:04...and seeing as I had to break up all of the dip sets that's about where I expected to be. I can do the pullups straight through in regular helen.

Attended Who is the Fittest in MI challenge today. It was my first exposure to CF games style WOD's and format. I had a great time and it was a fun (but tough) day.

WOD #1
'Fat Nancy'

5 Rounds for time
400 M run
115# Overhead Squat, 15 Reps

My time: 14:30 (PR even over regular Nancy)
At this point in competition I was 3rd overall. Behind some dude that finished 20th in the CF games last year and a monster named Rambo.

WOD #2

'Fran 1000'

Row 1000m
Then
Chest to bar Fran

My Time: 11:29

Finished this one 2nd or 3rd and after this was still 3rd overall.

Figured I had top 3 locked up...but then came the 3rd Workout...

I was feeling great, Fired up to win a spot at the regional (which I'm already signed up for) but also, I was pretty happy with how competitive I was.

I really wanted to do all of the workouts RX'd but My 1 RM snatch is 135. Here was the last workout.

WOD #3

'ISAGRACE'
20 Power Snatch 135#
20 Squat Clean and Jerk 135#.

Squat Clean and jerks would've been fine but I had to scale it to the next level and do 115#.

My time: 7:47.

Need to work on my snatch.

Came in 4th overall.
