Strict ring MU skill exposure, spend 6-8 min of ‘play’ here
This is the first time I have done some strict rmu in a long time and was glad to know I still have it. What was hard today was controlling the negative and tying more than one together. The eccentric strength wasn’t there today.

Every 5 min x 4 sets
21 cal AB
15 deadlifts @ 245lbs
9 BBJO @ 24in
Times were 2:49. 2;42. 2:46, 2:50 – I do also think I found a pretty fast bike (whoohooo)……deadlifts broke each round first round did 2 sets and that slowed down my bbjo and after breaking deads in sets of 3 felt I just moved fast on the burpee work

Every 4 min x 4 sets
21 cal ski erg
BB OH WL x 50ft @ 95lbs
Clock was counting down so didn’t get accurate times but found a pace on ski that was hitting 1000-1100 cal/hr and that felt really good to hit that.

(WB/DU/BMU)
17:57 – I would say for the most part, transitions were on average 4-5 seconds, there is always some outlier rounds of course. But that once again was my big goal, got to be a sweaty mess around round 8-9, only missed one round of dubz, 2nd round and mentally said cannot let that happen again, so did my first 12-15 reps at a pace I wouldn’t miss and then tried to speed up to finish the reps. BMU felt really really good today. So as the transitions were pretty good without having video to analyze, the breaks were in wall balls, after last bmu I tried to get my first rep in within 4seconds or less, but broke every round at rep 11 (some rounds did 10 and liked 11 the best), and without a doubt rested too long, I realized I only had 2 ½ rounds left and missed the window to put my foot on the pedal and suffer, but went for that in the last round, I should’ve fought for unbroken on wall ball last round but did a drop breath and pick back up. Overall, pleased with transitions, this would’ve been a good one to do with someone else, I do think I would have suffered a little more in the middle of it to push for shorter rest periods, or someone judging me.

Front squat x 3, rest 1 min
Back squat x 5 (same bar), rest 2 min x 4 sets
185 x 2, 205 x 2 – this was evil after the wall balls……first set was the toughest but after that wasn’t terrible just didn’t feel powerful and explosive
