"We don't have the agility of gymnasts, the power of a weightlifter, or the endurance of a marathoner but we have more agility, power, and endurance than any gymnast, weightlifter or marathoner. We do your stuff almost as good as you, you can’t do our stuff at all and we do stuff neither of us does way better than you can." -Greg Glassman, aka "Coach"

Did a mixture of tuck and regular pull-ups…DB Snatch was a squat snatch compared to last time…frozen hips. I was able to drop my hips a bit to catch it, but not as low as they should be. They were from the floor after 1st set after seeing my wo partner doing it.

17:22 in Feb doing regular pu and snatch was more of a DB swing

Last day at the in-laws and had to get this one in. Went to the Y and set this up in the corner, no bumpers, chalk or decent bars. Overall pleased with my time.

20 mins of:
15 tuck jumps
15 sit-ups
15 supermans

16 rds ± 15 jumps

Legs were so tight and sore I am suprized that I could get off the ground, but feel much better now. The unanchored sit-ups bogged me down, but were better than doing GHD. I got a good sweat going, but my heart rate did not seem to get that high…probably from the slower pace on the sit-ups…dunno

Happy Thanksgiving!!
