[QUOTE=Scott Jenkins;1166562]its always the false grip that limits me and the other ones with the normal grip and big kip , there currently not quite as strong, so really have to pick and choose what to use depending on the workout.

Do you use normal grip or always false now?[/QUOTE]

I cant get my rings high enough here on the forklift for the no false grip, so right now it is all false grip which sucks as I can really go on the no false grip SO much easier for me.

Yes you got bigger stamina on that way than me, it just kills my elbows if I do the no false grip too much , all the falling into the big kip, rather than slowly lowering and flick out.

I am guessing you lean back from the top and fall out backwards? If not try it it is not a big drop, more a fall into a swing if that makes sense.

time 4:19

last times

5:56
6:27
6:16
6:40
6:50

eh, all unbroken, had a stagger at rep 18 of the 21 which took seconds to steady over head

to long a break inbetween the 15 pullups and start of the 9 thrusters, just standing there gasping. I expect that killed my pr, that5 and the wabble on the 21. Thrusters a tiny bit slow twards the end but ok. 44 seconds off pr. not bad.

Re: Nik
 

Great work Nik, your PR's still better than mine. You must take big breaks if you went unbroken as I done the pull ups 10/5 and 5/2/2 on the last two rounds

Yea, unbroken and that break inbetween the 15 and 9 was way long, also racking that bar is long, clean it get it set then go, not a smooth clean and go, plus I was not going fast as I could on the thrusters, I tried to pace them really well to not be gassed after.

I paced the 21 great and was able to be relaxed and have calm breathing through out that set, 15 got a bit rough and I had to make myself calm down.

Then just gassed out in between the 15 and 9 and had a pitty party at the bar before I picked it up. Eh it happens.

Yes it happens but this is something you need to work on, just like I need to get more sets unbroken you need to stop looking at the bar, once your working your body regulates itself and the pain is not so bad.

You tried a low landing squat clean to start the thrusters, I pick the bar up and just land straight away in the bottom of the squat to get a quick start.
