Found a CrossFit WOD that sounds so innocent on paper (don't they all)and thought it would be perfect for Steelfit to tackle. After all, it is ALL about pulls.....and nothing but pulls; perfect right? The plan was to get the work in this week, but with a heavy travel schedule again, creativity had to prevail to get something done while on the road.
10 Rounds for Time
Each round consists of:
3 Weighted pull ups (prescribed at 45 lb, but NOT happening for me).... 20lb or 25lb instead.
5 Strict pull ups
7 kipping pull ups
The goal is for each round to be completed without letting go of the bar. After the weighted pulls, you drop the dumbbell and keep going with the strict pulls.
On a workout like this, it is so important to have given that special attention to GRIP development along the way. Half of the battle is going to be keeping your hands glued to the bar, especially after you drop the extra weight.
This week for sure, with a brief update next week on the results: nothing but pulls!!!
