Rope Climbs are Fun


Snatch - 78% x 1 x 5 (58kg)
Snatch balance - 70% x 3(52kg); 75% x 3(55kg); 80% x 2(60kg); 85% x 1 x 2(62.5kg)
Went light on the snatch balance (used 75, not 80), but could not land the last two. Felt tired and unfocused. Need a rest day.
4 rounds for time:
100 m row
2 rope climbs (22 feet)
1 min rest
6:11 (minus rest)

Today was fun, I did this MetCon with Wybond (picture above on the right doing pull-ups). He edged me out on the last rope climb, this was tough. Our grip was smoked!!!

Getting Stronger

Today I Pressed and was impressed with my results.  My press is improving a lot.  I hope my other lifts keep improving so that I can beat my old 1 Rep. Max.  I am thinking a CFT in a few months??  

WOD 
3 rounds
1 Rope Climb (22 feet)
10 ring dips 
15 pul-ups
8 min.
Expected this one to be shorter...my arms turned into spaghetti really fast.  Next time I will use more feet on the rope climbs and save the arms a bit more.
