Monday the 18th of May, 2009

Ten rounds for time of:
3 Weighted Pull-ups, 40 pounds
5 Strict Pull-ups
7 Kipping Pull-up

For weighted pull-ups place a 40 pound dumbbell between the legs above crossed ankles and jettison the dumbbell after third rep and continue with strict pull-ups and then the kipping pull-ups. Coming off the bar or going to ground constitutes termination of a set.

Post time and number of sets to completion.

  • Three part instruction videos on the kipping pull-up featuring Adrian Bozman from the CrossFit main site. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

Whipped the sh.. out of my hands and legs, somehow the screw on the jump rope came off during the beating I was giving myself, tied it in a knot to finish.

Working out back home sucks, can't wait to get back to the 305
