DoublePushUnderUp

50-40-30-20-10
Push-ups
Double-unders

Damn I don't like the "games standard" for push-ups. Feels like I'm doing a bunch of single, bodyweight bench presses and have NO rhythm.  I did, however, keep a suprisingly decent rhythm on the du's.

13:48 rx'd (horrible)

Did 3x50 abmat sit-ups after

Don't I Know You?

"Cindy-ish"
AMRAP in 2o minutes of:
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats
Every 3 rounds do 3xdeadlift at 80% 1rm

Interesting twist on the WOD today... funny thing is I've only done one legit Cindy and I think it was at the very begining of my CrossFit adventure. I need to bust one out so I have a true baseline. Today would not have been a good time to attempt that though, it was stoopid full at the nooner today. Space on the pull-up bar was LIMITED. Heck, I could hardly find a spot on the floor to do push-ups. Add to that the new "hands-off" standard on push-ups and my shitty score today starts to make a little since. I was only able to knock-out 13 rounds, 5 pulls, and 6 pushes before the clock ran out. I did the deads at 280#.

21-15-9 Reps for Time:

Handstand Push-Ups
Ring Dips
Push-Ups

13:41...

-mostly 2 x jumping dips, started with a few b.w.
-did 21 HSPU with 2 mats, got wrecked, then finished the 2nd and 3rd rounds with
the infamous prison showers
-reg push-ups were a breeze... riiiiight

This was the first time I've done jumping ring-dips... usually I would use a red band. I thought that the jumps would help me keep a more natural body position and provide for a greater ROM, but my legs did much more of the work than I would have liked and in the future I'll use the band to keep the emphasis on my weak lil deltoids.

This was the best I've done on the hspu thus far... still plenty to work on though
