Ring Warmups Done. Still adjusting to the reaaaally tall ring straps. Couldn’t quite get the rising MU correct yet. Did the minute MU but at rep 8 one of the rings released and I dropped.

They are going to check it out. The owner watched it happen. Unfortunately, I think I’m one of very few that can actually do muscle ups at the gym, so I doubt it’s happened before.

Did the Muscle Up Skills per Cj’s comments on my last MU workout. Must’ve helped since I hit 15 pretty UB MU for a little PR.

Then hit the GG workout. Goal was sub 3:00, was well under that.
Deadlifts: 5-5, 3-1-1
SHSPU: 15, 8-7

Shoulder mobility to cool down. Might run later if I’m feeling it. The sun is coming out… 🙂

Metcon option A
Done. Just did it. Non wind in my sail
I decided that hanstandwalk needed to be in 50 feet segment’s unbroken. Really slowed me down. But trying to get more stamina on walking on hands in wods
