Did Barbara today for the first time ever...

5 rounds for time. Rest 3 minutes between each round.

20 pullups
30 pushups
40 situps
50 squats

1. 3:48
2. 4:48
3. 5:59
4. 6:35
5. 6:20[/QUOTE]

Did 'Barbara' again today...extremely tired and hungover after watching the Tigers last night (It was a 1 game tiebreaker that went 12 innings). I ended up drinking more than I wanted to - owell. It was fun to see some old friends and it was STILL a great game even though they lost.

Here are my splits.

3:28
3:46 (10:14)
4:52 (18:06)
5:18 (26:24)
5:33 (34:57)

22:57 total work time...Compared to 27:30 last time. Pretty big PR I guess. If my math is correct...

WOW! Huge Improvement. Nice work! Too bad about the the Tigers, but at least it was a great game. Even if we won we would likely have gotten rolled by the Yanks, but it still would have been fun to see.

Probably...pitching really started to tank toward's the end there (except for Verlander).

'Diane'
21-15-9 reps
Deadlift, 225
HSPU

6:52 Rx'd.

Dead is still my weakness but it was almost a 4 minute PR. I did skip this the last time it came up though because I was hurting from the regionals.

Wow. Great time and improvement. I always do the deads unbroken but the HSPUs always kill my time. How did you break them up? Maybe I'd get better at them if I ever did them more than once every few months.

I did 13/8 round 1
7/4/4 round 2
4/3/2 (I think) for the last round.
The HSPU was never really that bad for me...mostly because of my short arms. But I will say that the people at our gym that work on thm the most seem to get thebest results. probably very obvious...Its a tough movement and more of our members can do a muscle up than an HSPU.
